[QUOTE="Pilchard, post: 5068097, member: 19427"] Wind knots and line dumping off the spool are two separate issues. A spool that is too full will cause line to dump off the spool and get hung in the first guide. Wind knots are caused by twists. A simple fix to prevent wind knots is to occasionally pay out all of your line behind the boat while it is idling forward with nothing tied on, not even a leader. Close the bail and then retrieve your line while the boat is still moving forward. This will eliminate all twists and put the line back on your reel under tension. Fishing baits like spoons or soft plastic jerk baits will twist up your line in a hurry. [/QUOTE]
