As someone who incorrectly spooled monofilament the very first time I ever spooled a reel (which was when I got back into fishing in April 2025 after a ~40 year unintended hiatus), which led me to experiencing line twist, tangles, and bird nesting, I demonstrate the correct way to spool mono (or fluorocarbon) so you can avoid these issues and spend your time fishing and not untangling line!
