I have some bass pro bucks coming and was looking for a reel, I have had only 2 of their store brand and I gave them away, horrible line twist as compared to other brands. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good model?
Thanks

Not being a smart turd but how does one spinning reel cause line twist and another not?
All spinning reels are not created equal. They can design reels that greatly cut down on line twist. One big thing is having 2 ball bearings in the line roller assembly. Many cheaper reels will only have one bearing…and many will not have a bearing at all….just a nylon bushing.Quote:

You can also reduce line twist by closing the bail with your hand instead of cranking to close the bail.
