it's my first time putting braided line on a baitcaster (my first baitcaster) and i wanted to know if i put the right amount of line and the right ammount of tension
I am no pro as I just got my first bait casting combo in mid August. From what I’ve learned it looks like you did perfect—seems perfectly even/taut. Also looks like you put on the perfect amount; from what I learned you should be able to see a little of the rim of the spool (pictured). Best of luck—bit of a learning curve!

Looks neat and tight, it has a very very slight bump in the middle but that won’t affect much, might actually go away after a few casts and you start to retrieve wet line under tension.
