Good point.

I have not checked mine. Perhaps I should.

The key is to have a proper knot at all the transitions.

Then again, chances of getting on those reels are less, thus the knot may not be in play.

Just start with 20-30 yards of 30 lb or higher mono and tie a Uni to Uni knot with a minimum of 6 coils on each side.
