Changing Lines

You are standing in the middle of the river and you would like to change reel spools to switch from a floating to a sink tip line. Do you have to wade all the way back to the bank to thread your 9 foot rod with the new line? No, an easy way is put your new spool in the reel, thread the line through the guides in the butt section then take the rod apart and thread the top sections. Put your rod back together and you are ready to fish.
