I wet pack all my line, both mono and braid, I use a 5 gallon bucket 1/2 full of water, I took 2 2"X2"X4" blocks of cedar( because of it's buoyancy) and drilled a hole in the middle, I installed an aluminum 3/8" rod into one side and epoxied it,the other side fits snug, but loose enough to remove, I then slide my spool of line onto it and drop it in the water... when I put the line on the reel, I use a sponge to pinch the line as it is wound on the spool, I've been using this set up for 20 odd years, it works pretty slick .. I save the old ( empty ) spools and use an electric drill and a home made mandrel attached to them to remove the old line ..

A good run is better than a bad stand!
