How do I get the line out of a fishing rod?

Question

The line broke on my sons Rocket Fishing pole. How do I get the line out so I can add a new bobber and hook?

Answer 1

Link may help? Looks like top encasing of rod lifts up, just by my lookin' at pictures provided on this site. Once that's accomplished, then good old common sense should take over from there ;). Good luck to ya'...

Answer 2

If it's a closed face reel, remove the cover by unscrewing it. For both closed and open reels, feel the spool of line for an end. You may need to rub it to get it to spring free. Feet the end of the line through the reel cover if you need to, down the pole through the guides, and add the bobber.

Or you could just cut all the line off if it's old, and put new line on. A spool of fish line is pretty cheap.
