Quick take
A drill-powered tool that attaches to cordless drills to quickly strip line from fishing reels.
The KastKing Line Gobbler is an orange ABS plastic attachment that turns a cordless drill into a line stripper. Its metal hex shaft sits in the drill chuck, and the old line locks onto the retention plate by hand, so you can empty a reel in moments before respooling. It suits anglers who change line often and want a quicker way to clear a reel.
