![]() We use both ourselves almost exclusively when we need 30+ feet casting distance. ![]() Both are easy to master, and can produce some of the farthest casting distances of any centerpin cast. 99% of all centerpin float fishermen these days seem to be either side casting or using the spinning side cast. Expect line twist to happen with any variation of side casting (less with spinning side casting), it is just the way it is. This pinch will push your twist back out to your swivels to allow them to release the twist. The only true method to untwist line from side casting, is to float all of your line out on the water, and bring it back onto the reel while pinching between your first finger and thumb. No swivel or amount of swivels will release all of the line twist entirely, as it is created from sidecasting. Regardless of whether you put swivels into your setup, line twist will still occur. If you side cast, line twist will occur eventually. The second most common issue causing line twist, with centerpin reels, is side casting. If you are spooling a centerpin reel, the line must come off the bottom of the spool and onto the bottom of the centerpin reel. Line direction means as if the spool were pegged with a screwdriver and actually rotating freely either clockwise or counter clockwise. Pay attention to the line direction coming off the spool if you are laying it on the floor. So, if your spinning reel bale rotates clockwise when you turn the handle, the line must come off the spool also in a clockwise direction. If you are spooling a spinning reel, the line must come off the spool and onto the spinning reel in the same direction. If you are a baitcaster, the line must come off the top of the fishing line spool and onto the top of the baitcaster reel. ![]() Your line must be spooled onto your fishing reel the correct way. No fishing line on the planet can escape end user caused line twist, it is what it is. Line twist occurs either during the end user spooling process onto the fishing reel, or by the end user while actually fishing, and in many cases because of the float. All fishing line from every line company is mechanically wound under tension in a uniform direction as it is fed from bulk hanks or skeins of line. Line twist does not come from a line manufacturer or from the fishing line itself. Line twist can be caused a few different ways, depending on your situation. One of the most common issues with regards to line performance when float fishing is dealing with line twist.
