Thanks guys. Definatly not scared to tear abu's open. A few years ago one vomited on me and it took forever to get back together. They are wicked easy to work on. I will look for the things you guys mentioned. Gotta do it soon for that big wave of cows that are coming

Everything is better on the rocks.

I have spooled abu's with fresh line and noticed this happen. I found the cause to be the tension I placed on the line while spooling. Not enough tension sometimes leads to backlashes. My problem was running the line through my fingers and onto the reel, holding the line close to the reel and off center, it packed up on the side my hand was holding the line on.
