    Abstract: A fishing reel winding and unwinding device by which the line supply spool (or storage spool) is supported on a universal positioning turn table relative to a fishing reel secured to a reel support. The spool shaft is supported on an upright crank shaft and spool holder on a turn table, and the spool shaft is equipped with a crankshaft component for rotating an empty line supply spool thereon as during winding or unwinding a fishing reel.
