Great line spooler

This is an amazing product, way better than the traditional way of someone holding a line spool with a screwdriver etc...and pressing to aquire the right pressure to spool tightly,just secure this to a platform and your line spool tighten to the desire pressure and start cranking.

Not including the base plate to mount this more effectively is one thing, charging nearly $40 for it is just obnoxious!

I saw some review from Australia about this spooling tools. I always spool my braid lines for my inshore or light tackles but want to proceed more spooling myself for offshore heavy tackle but with no adequate tools. This Bees Knees spooler is the best spooling tool, with adjustable drag to tweek line tension, which is the most important aspect when spooling offshore reels. This tools serves me for Makaira 16 with 100 Lb braid spooling with proper tension, as long as all of my heavy tackles. Top notch spooling tool!

I was skeptical at first about this because of the cost, but after owning one, I can say it's totally worth it!

I spool a few 30's and 50's conventionals with braid that takes a lot of line capacity. This tool makes life SO MUCH easier and provides consistent tension.
Pros
  • Excellent for spooling large reels.
Cons
  • Price? but after using it, it's totally worth it.

This thing is great. Best thing about it the build quality is high, puts out even drag tension on the spool to really pack on the braid tight.
Pros
  • fit and finish
Cons
  • cost - but really for the money you probably get a better spooler

  • consistent drag pressure

  • price

After 2 50 wide reels my wife was over the screwdriver assist. Told me to get one and this has been amazing. I actually get the line out on right and can load braid correctly.

I'm actually trying to put something together for bass fishing. How sors this work on the smaller 150 yard rolls of braid. I specifically use Power Pro 20lb test.
1 Answer
It would work if you fabricated something to hold the smaller size spool in place if you dont its just going to slide back and forth on the shaft of the spooler resulting in the line not laying even on your spool.

In the description it states, "This spooler can be mounted to a bench, or mounted in a rod holder on the boat." How? Does this come with that mounting hardware or is all that additional? In a nutshell, what EXACTLY do I get for my $140 +tax + shipping?

January 3, 2021
I understand 200mm is the largest length spool it can accommodate?  What is the minimum length spool it can accommodate and still provide stability and drag? 
1 Answer
There is no minimum length that the manufacturer provides, but this spooler is designed for larger size bulk spools.
