Taking at look at more Temu Fishing stuff!

Got some more Temu fishing stuff in, and I thought we would take a peek at this line spooler, winder, thingy.... It's pretty much what I expected it to be!

I have that spooling tool in red and black color. In my opinion it's not the best but will do in a pinch. I do have another spooling tool that works much better as it will spin the spool as you crank on the line. I have had no problems with line twisting when using it.

@ronmayo8591 yea I have seen some much better versions. I agree that in a pinch I would give it a go. I have an old DIY setup I made quite a few years ago to put tension on a spool that I use. I works like a charm and I rarely have issues with twist or wind knots.

The thing about TEMU is just what you said "you get what you pay for" no matter where you buy it. Most products found in the major commercial named brand stores are from the same source CHINA. So, being that you have this store which sells mostly chinese products then you get the same ones, pay a cheaper price and of course free delivery. They are all mostly cheaply made some of them good, some of them bad. I buy things like zip ties, and other plastics, some tools like saw blades, screws and have bought some carving tools. So far, I'm pleased with what I get and get what I expected.

I agree 100%, it's not really even worth the time to me to weed through what's OK and what isn't. I wanted to see what it was all about for my own curiosity, and then post some videos to perhaps inform others. I will stick with companies I know and pay the little bit extra lol.

That's the completely wrong way to spool an open face reel. Enjoy the line twists and bird nesting.

Oh, Im well aware! It was more about testing a cheesy product than anything.

The same thing happened to me I no longer buy anything from Temu I found out who owns Temu!!!

[@kypesandstripesoutdoors]

I hear ya, my friend! I couldn't resist my own curiosity. It's not particularly worth weeding through all the junk to find the gems. There is some usable things on there I think. But it's floating in a sea of junk lol. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@paulmcmullan8498]

Ive tried different models and styles and they all have the same problems...they are designed to catch anglers rather than being useful...

[@kypesandstripesoutdoors]

I completely agree! I have some guide buddies who have some that work well. They are also super expensive! I don't need them that bad lol. I've gotten by for many years without any such thing!

[@peps4461]

Temu sucks whatever i orderd from them week or two max and is broke ,this isnt worth of spending Money ,go to your local store and buy some Budget stuff and kt will be much better quality then Temu

[@kypesandstripesoutdoors]

I agree! Now that I have spent a bit of time with the stuff, the warts start to show. Lure wise etc there is a nice "veneer" but once you get to the heart, it's mostly junk. I have enjoyed a pair of line cutters and pliers I got from them. But outside of that.... Not so much!
