does anybody know where i could get a electric line spooler like they have in the bait shops?

They are pretty expensive. I made my own using a sewing machine motor.

the bERKLEY LINE MACHINES ARE VERY EXPENSIVE. tHE LIGHTONES ARE SOMETHING LIKE $700 AND THE hEAVY DUTY ONES THAT WE SEE IN tACKLE SHOPS ARE AROUND $1100 ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT THESE ARE WHOLESALE PRICES AND GO ALONG WITH A COMMITTMENT/ORDER FOR A LARGE AMOUNT OF bULK LINE, SOMETHING LIKE 30 bULK SPOOLS.

Berkley Line Spooling machine...$30.It ain't electric but it does the job beautiful with a minor amount of practice.Even comes with a battery operated line stripper free depending on where you buy it.

The only differance between it and an electric one is about 15 minutes of your time.Oh and about $670-$1070 bucks.

I got 3 or 4 machines . I have scabed parts form each (New machines) to make the ultimate machine. Over the winter I will place the back together and see what I got available. If I decide to get rid of any I'll put it up in the classifieds here first.

You can find those on ebay quite often, not as expensive as a pro shop and just as nice.

Triangle Mfg makes the line winders or berlkley, search it and you should come up with it if not i have the web address at my office so pm me.
