KY Afield Outdoors: Solving common fishing line problems Simple techniques can prevent backlash, loops, tangles, and birds nests By Lee McClellan News from KY Fish & Wildlife BR>My grandfather had an old, huge saltwater Penn baitcasting reel spooled with black Dacron line attached to one of the earliest fiberglass rods. A large switch on the side of the reel released the spool to cast. Your thumb controlled everything. It didnt have a spool tension control knob or adjustable braking like modern baitcasting reels. My grandfather would tie a casting dummy onto that antique rod and let the grandkids go at it in his back yard. My sister could cast better than my brother and me.
