KastKing Kalibrate Fishing Line Spooler, Line Counter & 5" Braid Scissors

I honestly don't know if I'm using this thing 100% correctly. But I've used this to spool multiple reels and I have not had any issues with a rats nest on casting or any other usage really. The price was good and its pretty easy to use. The little elastic bands that go around the spool of line do a pretty great job at keeping tension. I would recommend for those that want easily spool their own reels without having to get too creative.

Gets the job done!

In fact, it’s actually kinda great. The only complaint is that it is made from a fairly weak-feeling plastic that I don’t expect to last for more than maybe two or three years, but considering its low price that’s not really a big deal. When I first opened it up and looked at it I almost just sent it back, but I had a bunch of spinning reels and a couple bait-casters that needed new line so I put it to use. I still haven’t done the bait-casters yet, but it worked really well with all of my spinning reels. It made putting line on the reels an easier and quicker process than it has been for many decades. I would like to see it have more rod-blank options because the smallest diameter hole on this thing is still a little too large for very light and fast action rods, but being able to tighten tension in two separate ways helped making putting line on reels on small, thin rods fairly easy. I would recommend this to you if you are in doubt, but there’s also sturdier ones around if you’re willing to spend a larger amount of moolah. If you want one that is economical and does its intended job then this little bad boy from KastKing is worth your investment.

This works. It does a good job of putting the line on your reel under tension. I recommend taking a damp cloth and putting it between your fingers and the line going on to the reel. It's a simple unit and it's pretty easy to use. I thought the price was very good.

This works but not vey well. You would be better off purchasing a different one.

Its sturdy build ensures stability, while the adjustable arms can accommodate different spool sizes, making it versatile for various fishing setups. The smooth operation prevents line twists and tangles, ensuring a hassle-free spooling experience. The compact design allows for easy storage and portability, making it a great addition to any angler’s gear.

Excellent line spooler.

I like KastKings innovative products and I like this spooler tool. Good for respooling on the couch and watching hot tuna action videos. It’s not the bees knees of spoolers but it gets the job done. Bought this to throw in the travel fishing bag and since it’s compact it’s just perfect for respooling on the go. It might not be perfect but it’s definitely better than nothing. Happiness is a product of reasonable expectations and if you have reasonable expectations, I think you’ll be reasonably pleased with this spooler. My advice is skip the included instructions and just YouTube the spooler video. Might save some head scratching. Other than that, it’s very simple. My only disappointment was that it doesn’t come in some cheap nylon pouch. I recommend you at least pop it in a gallon size ziplock after use so you don’t misplaced the money Pieces. That would be the tension bands. Pretty much useless without them. Only way I think this model could be better is if they used recycled ocean plastic to manufacture it. Hint hint! Save the planet, go fishing. Bring your kids

I'll get this out of the way, the product works well and you can line up a spool anyplace anytime easily. It is however way over priced, it's $15 CDN maybe at best but a great idea and system, if it was $15 I'd probably buy a few just to have on hand on the boat and with my boys and at home. Now for the delivery, I am getting sick and tired of these terrible delivery guys delivering products that look like they were run over by a car. The product showed up in complete shambles like a car tire ran it over, I may still return this. I suspect someone ran it over when they spread out their deliveries at the local Walmart earlier today but this happens at least once a week now with products being delivered in such bad shape.
