2019 and this is still extremely usefull .. thanks sir !!

Lads and ladies, ive just been respooling and i thought id run some tests regarding line reducers. Im surprised with the results! 0.30 dia line - 6000 line reducer, 117 wraps, 468yards .30 dia line - 3500 line reducer, 90 wraps, 360yards .32 dia line - 3500 line reducer, 70 wraps, 280 yards The .32 dia line is shimano technium invisitec in 12lb

like the video mate, I would personally fill the spools more with line as the line beds in tighter after use, what diameter line were you spoiling on.....?

Just purchased 3 reels and was wondering if i can do all 3 with a 1000 meter spool or line nice one very helpful :)

Thank you for the video. It helped me 👌👍👍

What size reducer did you use? was it the 10000

Hi everyone, just spooled Korda carp line ( 0.40 ) onto my 3 ultegra 14000, used 10000 spoil reducers. 1000 meters will not do 3 reels, you need to buy 2 1000 meter spoils of line to fill 3 reels. Hope this helps.

So the 3500 reducer will do the work for 3 reels?

No problem 👍 Tight lines Steve

Always buy 3 identical spools and use one or real that gives you a definite respool for each next time around

Hi to you, great video by the way. can you please advise me, i have just purchased 2 XTD 14000 reels like yours. can you please say how many meters of line right up to the lip i can get on with the large spacers to save me putting on a whole spindle of line. Thanks for any advice Dave

That's fine Steve i will use the large reducer and will be happy with 200 meters on one of the spools. Thanks kindly for your reply

6000 reducers with .31 - .35 line will do 3 reels with a 1000m (ish) spool 333Mtrs on each 👌

I've got 0.34 line to put on these reels mate so if I use 6000 reducers that will give me 300 or so metres on each? I've got a 1200m spool of line so is there smaller spacers I can use to get 400 mtres on each spool?

Unfortunately you're stuck with the 6000 reducers and some left over line. I've encountered this problem, I now use 0.35 and wouldn't go any thinner due to using 4oz leads without shock leaders. This now leaves me with no wastage once 3 reels are spooled up.

Okay mate sound so if I use the 6000 spacers it will give me about 300 metres of line? Thats more than enough for me Tbh

Yes you should easily get over 300 yards per spool but I'd advise counting on the turns. 280 turns equates to 308 metres which is approx 337 yards. By doing this you'll be able to put the same amount of line on each reel. Sorry if that sounds obvious or condescending.

No that's great mate thanks for your help numbers and maths blows my mind lol 😂 thanks bud

Looks to me like theres different washers in both reels. One spool has gone on coned one way and the other has gone on t Coned the opposite way. If the line lay was the same you would prob be ok

You get spare washers in the boxes to make them spoil the same.

To minimise how much line is required. They do away with the need for backing line.
