Default rod/reel line for baitcaster

Best way to free a snag when using superlines is to make 5 or 6 wraps of

the
line around something (I use my trusty Chapstick) and use that to tug on

the
snag. I'd never use the reel directly. Not only does the line embed, you

may
damage drag, gears, etc.


And never, Never, NEVER wrap the line around your hand or fingers. That is
a good way to end up with a nasty cut to the bone. While I haven't done it,
I have seen it done and the results aren't pretty.
