Line from SMB unravelling in pocket

[PfcAJ]

@PfcAJ I can only see a single picture. Probably because it's too old. But I am curious about the procedure.

Unsure. Too long ago! Clip to line, use the same side of the clip to hook into the spool.


Easy.

My SMB line unravels even though it's clipped off in my pocket.
It is inconvenient to say the least when I want to remove it and shoot the bag, and the line is all over the place.
Has anyone else encountered this?

Literally never happened to me +/- 10 years (the other 10 years I wasn't using an SMB/spool - and was kneeling on the bottom...).

Didn't read all the comments - make sure enough tension on the line when clipping to the spool - if issue exists contact fundies instructor (if no fundies instructor - take fundies).

+1 for tension on the line before clipping off, clip it off a hole past whichever one it ends up at. It'll loosen a little when it's wet, so make sure to start getting it tight on the last handful of wraps so that it doesn't pull slack from further down the line.
