I use a 6" piece of 1" pvc with a notch cut into the end. Hook the rubber band in the notch and stretch enough to wrap the power pro around the pipe the number of times you want. Pull the rubber band thru itself. Release from the pipe.

It's a lot easier on your fingers.

I learned my lesson on wrapping the braid around my hand when I had a hookup while pulling the rubber band thru the braid. Cut my finger to the bone.

Thanks for the tip reds. I have gloves that I started using after my fingers were already sore. However, i like your idea. I used to just use mono for trolling as it is cheap and safer having kids on board. I used to only use braid for light tackle. I did like the braid for trolling in the wind though.
