Learned something new today the biggest surprise was it's literally been right under my nose the whole time and I didn't have a clue.

When I vertical fish using spinning reels I try to get my line back to the same depth each time I catch a fish short of hand lining it in I'm never quite sure that it's at the same depth after I reel in. I try counting the cranks and such but in the excitement of the catch I usually loose track. So after I came across this video I did a search and found a post here on CDC from 2009 about how to utilize this tool that you already have, it's more than just for line storage.

Wish I new this years ago!
