This also brings to mind the need to remove all your line at least every two years as part of your maintenance program.

Always good to check the spool for any corrosion issues.
Cut ins to backing if loads were high and not fully spooled.
And an opportunity to either bathe/rinse the lower portion.

Just cruising in my now sweetas pimped out Southern 755 HT0!

Or turn the line over if you can be bothered....

Alternately a healthy smear of lanocote in the spool surfaces, except arbour is all that's needed.
