Up or Down

Does anyone see an issue with twisting the top section around where those eyes are down when the baitcasters are up, its not like we are doing any reeling much and if you need to let line out there is enuff weight that this is not a problem?????

Other than making the line twist around the first joint, I don't see a problem with it. I let our line and reel a bunch especially in shallower water tho.

Havent seen it be a problem letting line out or reeling up, now if you were to get really lite with your baits them it may be an issue.
