I DO NOT FISH. I USE THIS TO STRIP THE STRING OFF MY REAL THAT I USE TO FLY KITES WITH. I NEVER COULD FIGURE A FAST WAY TO DO THIS UNTIL A FRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME ABOUT THE REAL STRIPPER. THANK YOU AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

DOA
Don't waste your money on this item. I'm returning the one I bought because it will not grasp/pull the 4# or 6# or 8# line. I needed it badly, but it is a piece of junk. I'd go with the larger, stronger and heavier Berkley model... if you can find it. Bass Pro doesn't offer it any more as a separate item.

Good buy
This is a great buy. Its really cheap for being so good. If you ever need to strip some line off a reel or sharpen a hook, it will get the job done fast.

BPS Reel stripper
I looks good, and it works. However, because it is underpowered, it doesn't strip the line as fast as bigger models. It could be a good second tool for carrying in the glove compartment of your boat. It would take little space.

Cleans a reel in about 30 seconds!
This is the second one of these I have had the first was a Berkley brand.I just purchased the Bass Pro stripper and have used it on 5 reels and I love it ! I hate to change line on a reel without one of these.Run the line in the stripper and hold over a garbage can and spool will be empty in about 30-45 seconds.Easy as that,can't beat it for old line removal !

Cheaply made!
Not as powerful as the Berkley version. The clip on the battery compartment lid broke immediately. Too much hassle returning it so I taped it on.

great product
I have 4 of these now. I keep one in my tackle box and one in my boat one with my line and one in my truck. This will strip a reel in seconds. I always have one close. you can strip 4 reels before you could do one by hand.

Bad product
I have had a line stripper in the past. The one I purchased in the past came with a spooling kit that I purchased and worked very well. That is not the case with this one. It doesn't grab the line at all, so it soesn't pull it off the reel. I do not recomend it to anyone.......!

Time and Hand saver!
Works great! I usually strip my line by wrapping the line round and round on my hand and that takes forever and sometime cut's the circulation off to my fingers after several times around! This reel stripper works awesome and was a great purchase, GET ONE!

A WHOLE LOT QUICKER
I CHANGE LINE ON THE REELS MANY TIMES PER YEAR AND WITH THE LINE STRIPPER I CAN TAKE OFF LINE SO MUCH QUICKER. IF EVERY ONE HAD ONE THEY MAY CHANGE LINE MORE OFTEN.... WHICH THEY SHOULD DO. YOU CAN CATCH FISH WITH AN OLD ROD AND AN OLD REEL BUT NOT VERY WELL WITH OLD LINE ! !

Not much power...
This does not have a lot of power to really strip your line off of your reels. It works ok.....but I expected a lot more from Bass Pro on this one. I put fresh batteries in it and I can easily stop the sharpener portion with your fingertip or if I barely try to sharpen a hook. The stripper works ok....but like I said..not quite what I expected.

Good idea.
Stripper works well as does the hook sharpener. Should include 2 AA batteries.

Does what it says.
It's not fancy or expensive, but it sure beats shucking line by hand! It worked well for me and emptied the reel quickly. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to save some time!

Great Tool!
Use to let the kids pull all the old line off reels to get them involved in the maintanence side of fishing. After a couple of seasons I could tell they were getting tired of it so I added one of these to my last order for grins and giggles. Works like a champ and will take a couple hundred yards of line off very quickly. They love it.

Reel stripper
I purchased this because I have bad hand cramps . It"s an inexpensive way to go. So far it seems to work OK. However, I noticed the hook sharpener stone is soft and is wearing down fast.

Great Product
This handy little gadget is a must have for the avid fisherman. It strips line in a snap, and sure beats the heck out of pulling line off by hand. Especially if your doing multiple reels in one sitting.
Great Produce!!!

Reel stripper rocks
I used the Bass Pro reel Stripper to remove the old line off of several reels. The line just peeled off of the spools with a push of one button. I was amazed how fast the line came off. In no time at all, I had several spools emptied and ready to refill with new line. It's a whole lot better than stripping it off by hand. I should of had one of these years ago. I definately would recommend the Bass Pro Reel Stripper to my fellow fishermen.

Big time saver
Not much to say really. I was able to strip line off of six reels rather quickly which we all know is a real pain to do by hand. I havn't tried the hook sharpener yet and I can't comment on battery life because I haven't had it that long. That's why I'm only giving it a four star. For the price it can't be beat.

update
I purchased the reel stripper a few years ago because l got tired of taking line of my reels hand over fist. Specially when l have about 24 rod and reels that l use years round. At first glance l thought this would be an other junk drawer item, but l was pleasantly surprised when this little stripper worked as promised. It's been going for the past three years and still going strong! The way around the battery problem is get rechargeable batteries, works great for me. Never used the light, but you never know. All in all, not the best,but works great.Does what l need it to do, and it last. Can't go wrong.
