Pauafritta Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 The wire on my downrigger has jumped off and jammed the spool. According to online videos the only way to get the spool off is to strip the spool but I cannot as it is jammed and I cannot move it. Any suggestions on how to fix it it anyone that can do this in sydney? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyT Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Chop the wire, once its kinked like that it corrodes very easily and breaks anyway. Once youve cleared that up throw the wire in the bin and put 200lb braid on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked-Up Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I second the braid. even 100lb if you cant find 200lb thats whats on mine and its good with 10lb bomb. will stop that horrible hum through boat too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
