I always put the line the correct way on my baitcasting reels (I put it on the so that it goes on the reel the same direction it went on spool) but after a day or so of use the line comes off the spool like a freekin' slinky. I'm pretty frustrated if you can't tell. Is there any way to eliminate this? It's mono if that helps.

Ncarl, I use the Elite #12 with no problems on my baitcasters. I have found that when I spray my reels down with WD40 to clean them, the stoddart chemicals in it seem to soften up the line without hurting it too much. I have even sprayed Armor All on the line to help make it soft and not take a set. When the line does finally take a bad set, I unspool it and reverse it on the reel.
