Line Conditioner

I'm with hog Wally, best use I've found is when you have a tangle or a backlash, hose it down, and things will pull right out that would crimp otherwise- also really does seem to help flouro last a little longer

If and when I backlash, I grab my can of reel magic and get back in the game in record time. It wears off fast but who cares.

Never thought of using it for this... Will need to try it out next time I get a gnarly backlash... I mostly use it before and after trips to keep my line fresh while it's sitting. Seems to help.

Use KVD's stuff and like it. Really notice a difference on reels I haven't used for a while and in the winter time when mono generally has a little more memory because of the cold.

I've been using Real Magic for years. I almost never backlash and think it might be helpful to share why: I always have my thumb so near the spool, I can feel when it is not smooth during casting. All common backlashes, except when the rod tip hits something while casting, are preceded by a slight unevenness of the spool, so whenever I feel this unevenness, I strip off some line until the spool feels even again before the next cast.
