For me in over 12 yrs of running inline boards, I use off shore boards. Church adjustable super clips http://www.franksgreatoutdoors.com/a...ip-436675.html I've replaced all of the clips once but use those for snap weights. I used braid for around half of those years, I fished walleye tourney's so there is a lot of hours on those. They hold braid without wrapping, are very easy to use compared to other clips. If you have to wrap your line for the clips you have, ( if your right handed) wrap your line around your left hands first two fingers with them spread apart about 1/2 an inch, now stick that double wrap into your clip, and your double wrapped.
For your non-linecounter reels, point your rod towards the rear of the boat with your thumb lightly on the spool/lure in the water, swing your rod forward till your pointing at the front of the boat, that is pretty close to 20ft, do that 3 times, 60 ft. Get it? Works good.
Some of these articles need to be updated, which I have but they stopped posting my articles awhile back so I stopped writing them and sending them.
