Abstract

A line winding device prevents line twisting by allowing feeding of line from a line spool rotor to a fishing reel rotor along a first central axis and rotation of the line spool rotor about a second central axis. The line winding device includes a handle which can accommodate a fishing reel that requires winding of line onto the fishing reel rotor. A swivel assembly attached to the handle comprising at least one pair of arms, which can hold a line spool rotor in order to permit rotation of a line spool rotor around a first central axis while permitting rotation of the swivel assembly about a second central axis. A user can transfer line from the line spool rotor to the fishing reel rotor without line twisting due to the ability of the line spool rotor to rotate about a first central axis and a second central axis.
