There is no need to fill your reel with all new line. Half fill your reel with old line and top the spool up with new line. If you have 100 to 150 metres of new line on top, this is plenty to cast and fish with in your early years. |

When you have put the old line on (backing line) i would advise you to wrap it tightly in insulating tape this will stop the new line on top cutting into it and getting looped underneath. And give you a solid base to apply the new line on to! |
