Is there any practical way to "unlearn" fishing line memory?
When I comes off the spool it seems ok, but when I release the guide to
cast, it jumps off the spool like a slinky and it was new line........


One thing that has worked for me is to release a majority of the line
directly behind the boat (with nothing on the line), and "drag" it for
a couple of miles. Seems to help, if I am struggling with "loops"
