I recently bought (and returned) this line winder from Cabela’s made by Berkley. I’ve seen these types of winders on the market for a few years now & thought they might actually work…but was greatly disappointed. It might work fine for bait casters, but it sucks for spinning reels. I was planning on using it to spin 4lb test onto my Pflueger President micro reel, but it didn’t work at all. I ended up wasting a bunch of line & starting over. This thing is a piece!

This past Valentine’s day, my wonderful wife bought me a new set of rain gear. This stuff doesn’t come cheap, but boy it’s very nice. I’ve only worn it once so far during the Truman trip in March in 35-45 degree weather. Not only did it repel the water, but it also blocked any/all wind. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to wear it during warmer temps, but so far I love this stuff. I’d highly recommend it if you got the cash to spend.
