Drill spooling attempt
One my reel needed respooling. Based on experience spooling by winding the reel isn't as nice as by a spooling machine.
So tried with a drill! Guess it worked. https://youtu.be/FYcuHl6H7Fs

Re: Drill spooling attempt
Yup! Hahaha
Not sure in numbers but my fingers were holding pretty tight. Hence the duck tape on the fingers.
I hope its enough not to give air knot / bird's nest.

Re: Drill spooling attempt
When I don't have the chhance to lean on Franks hospitality at Busted and make him do it for me, i've actually taken to spooling up an old lethal 100 then setting the drag and using a spare rod to spool off that. It lets you use a drag and get a pretty solid idea about how much pressure you're putting on the braid. Most people recommend about 1/3rd the breaking strain of the line. So if i'm spooling 24kg braid (60lb) i'll put it on the lethal, put the lethal on a rod then use weight plates and a pulley to set the drag at 8kg, put the rod in a rod holder, then connect that through the guides of a second rod and onto the reel i'm actually spooling. It's a bit more work but saves your line wrapping around the guide on the second cast with a $60 lure. Could do the same thing with your drill and just use the spare reel and rod to keep the tension.
