Yeah that's probably what I am going to go with even though what we used wasn't braided stuff. I was just hoping somebody would go "hey knothead here's where ya find it!"

Here is what you were thinking of, but note is is antique silk line and the spool is a collector's item today.
 http://advertisingantiques.com/merma...ng-line-spool/ I switched to clear nylon 5-10# test back when I was a young man, just kept it straight by cutting it about 2 inches short of the pole length and putting the hook into the end of the pole when it was put up. I usually carried two poles with me to the lake, a split shot with a cork (bottle cork) and a float / swim pole. Oh, used black sewing thread to catch minnows on a 3-4 ft pole made from the tip, just split a worm in 4 pieces at the end and the minnows would grab the split worm and hang on until dropped into the minnow bucket. Catch minnows in a ditch. Bass and Specs love them. Ed
