I don't put anythng on it. I tie a 1/2" loop knot w/ a half-hitch,
then a cinch loop in the opposide direction of spool travel. get about
6-10 wraps on it and no more slip. Let's face it- if you get down to
10 wraps on the spool, you're prob. gonna farm it, anyway.
I am pretty anal about how I put mono on my spinners. With braid,I actually
just wind the line on thru the rod straight off the spool w/ tension. it's been my experince that braid does not twist or memorize like mono,because it's made of many individual fibers, instead of 1 continuous solid filament, like
Mono or F/C
