Tapering braided line

[davidsamuelson]

Hi Brian,
Thanks for that BUT:
Plan 1 is no good as I need the strength of spectra. Plan 2 I have tried but the spectra doesn’t like the rolling onto itself under load and doesn’t like the no-load, loose situation. Plan 3 Good but I fear would eat up my plastic drum in time.
I did do a constant diameter end splice 3/8 to 5/8 but that is not happy as the small cover doesn’t cover the bigger line diameter too well and the cross-over is a bit ugly. All this to say I would like a taper maybe like they do on tapered sheets. Is this machine made or can someone give me instructions. Thanks for any leads, David
