overhead spool band
Submitted by turts on Tue, 2012-08-07 11:21
hi guys
just wondering if there is any form of spool band for overhead reels? plenty on the market for spin reels, but cant find anything for overheads. obviously you cant wrap it around the spool without some sort of velcro connection or the likes. i find it a pain with my saltist 40LD to keep the wind-on tight on the spool when not in use. i usually tie the end off to the handle or similar
look forward to any input cheers in advance!

tape
I just put some insulation tape around the spool to keep the line in place.

Bit weird, I have no problem
Bit weird, I have no problem just putting the clicker on with most of my reels, and doing nothing with the ones that don't have a clicker.

Plastic bottle
Find a plastic bottle just narrower than the spool, cut out a strip of the bottle so it's like a band. Then cut a small section out so it looks like a bracelet and push that on, if that makes sense. Haven't tried it but it may work, just make sure of no sharp edges!
