Spooling with mono from home

All things being equal, if I am spooling up my reels with 50# jinkai mono, can I apply enough pressure manually with a dowel and palming it to pack it on tight?

If so, any suggestions, tips or tricks?

Also, in terms of wet packing, how would I go about doing that?

I have come to the conclusion that after getting properly outfitted, the three (3) most mission-critical tackles supplies will be water, sunscreen and gas - not in that order.

I am pysched for this tuna season. My boat is coming along and would be glad to host people whom are willing/eager to show a newbie the ropes.
