Attach this to the spool of your reel and to the base of the line you are about to fill with. This will keep the line from spinning on the spool. This line will be about the same diameter as your other line but much stronger, this is what the pro's have gone too. This line will hold up to being drug thru the shell. All line is breakable check it after catching a fish or after a resonable amount of cast. If there is a nick in this line it will be much easier to see than on regular line. Also when I take someone that is a novice I tie the lines for them. Good line doesn't make a differance if the line doesn't hold. This will interfear with your fishing, but you did bring them to have a good time so we must make the sacrafice. Good luck fishing let me know how it fares.

Thank you for that very informative tip..I will try it on another rod for next time and report back. Thanks a bunch. No matter who is fishing with me I try and make sure they have a good time...sometimes I probably worry about it too much. On this trip my company caught most of the fish
