spiral wrapping
I spiral all of my conventional rods. Get a lot of weird looks and comments, but thats okay. I aslo off-set my stripper guide about 30 degrees to the left. It does make it a lot easier to thumb the line back onto a nonlevel wind reel. Just guied the line to the right, and it automatically goes back to the left on it's own. Some say the off-set stripper will cause the line to pile up on the left side of the reel when you use a level wind, but I have never had that problem. Give spiral wrapping a try, you just might find something you really like.
