you need to make sure there is no water or dirt in it then u need to cut your line at on a slant with some sissors then dry your line keep your tubing straight and it should go through ok.

But some times its just a pain in the arss and im sure its the same for us all.

This problem comes up time and time again just buy a diamond eye pole threader (its in the match section) from any tackle shop £2 and any tubing is done in seconds.

i think that there are also special tubing threaders made by gardner, i find the pole threaders too thick

A length of Amnesia also works or a paper clip round the bottom with a 1oz bomb attached to the clip holds it straight, but I prefer the Gardner Tube Threader myself.

 

Always best to use NEW, clean tubing to set-up with.

i was setting up my rods yesterday as well i started with about a foot and a half and ended up with half a foot because i kept cutting it down to find my line . thta annoys you as well when you pull it back out and it was a cm away from going through
