I've just been talking to Mr Chilton and he's asked me to pass on this message ......
"Tell him I will meet him in court with my barrister and Mr Nellist."
He also said
"Tell himthe followingwas from a section in my article "Lets Twist Again", and if he does not want to take good advice then its not my fault he is an incompetent."
Never wind new line on using excessive tension. Many reel spools today are made from graphite. Although this material is light and strong, excessive tension will crush the spool - especially when low diameter lines are used. If you wind ten wraps of line around your finger it may feel tight, twenty will feel uncomfortable and thirty unbearable. The thin graphite spool will take hundreds of wraps and every turn of the handle increases the crushing force.A Shimano 10,000XT baitrunner will hold over 500mts of 12lb Krystonite so you can imagine the extreme force being applied. The amount of pressure being applied when spooling should be similar to the resistance of the lead and rig being retrieved. So don't grip the line too tight when winding on line otherwise it could be expensive and cost you a new spool!
