replaced the original line with a generic 8lb/110 yards and now this mess keeps happening

    How did you restring it? It looks like you didn’t keep any tension and now the line is all falling off the spool. I would make a second attempt at stringing that reel.

    Tie it off to a fence post or something using a swivel.

    Walk your line as far out as you can and reel it back on with some tension.

    I do this every single time I spool and its solved all my issues.

    After you cast, close your bail manually, lift the tip of the rod until it’s as tight as it gets, then start reeling.

    Took me a few tries after someone taught me and now I never have this problem
