Flipping your braid on your reel.....
I sure alot of guys just replace it with new.
For me I choose to flip it, what was simi old becomes new again. Plus I have a sliced knot in my line and I want it closer to the arbor. I hate feeling knots go through my guides period. This technique works for small bass reels.
When you don't want to transfer to another empty reel.
If you have alot of the same setups you could just play musical reels, and swap.
One bass reel flipping line I use a pool noodle and a piece of tape to hold your spot so if your arm get tired you can take a break just spot tape it.
Take your time and just slowly wrap around the pool noodle tightly like a spring. The bigger the line capacity the tighter the spring warp just estimate it.
Once you have all your line safely taped to the pool noodle the hard part is done. Take a break or go back to it, swap ends and tie your new arbor and just start winding with tension and letting the pool noodle flopping on the floor it will spin and unwinding it self until you come to the taped end. If you know a better way I would like to hear. I do not know how you would flip line that's to much for a pool noodle. Except reel to reel or reel to empty spool.
