can some one tell me how to convert my magda 30s to wire line currently running fire line but want to get rid of the flies have never used wire and don't know how to rig.

Either wrap about 25 ft of mono on. then wire or wrap a vol wraps of wire on the spool then tape it.I run a 10bead mm bead then tie a wire knot to a bigger snapswivel like from a spindoc. Magnas are not the greatest reels and will be in rough shape after a few dipsy rips. I just switched my wire reels from sg47's and convector 30's to tekota 600's and what a difference. Wire never gets that cross spool from the levelwind. Night and day difference.

Leave yourself a couple of wraps of fireline on the reel and make a loop in your wire and tie the fireline to it, or black tape the wire directly to the empty spool and wind on the reel. Make sure to keep the wire tight or you'll end up with a mess, have someone hold the wire spool with tension while you reel up.

To form a loop double your wire and make an over hand knot. Add a swivel and your in business.

Start saving to upgrade the magdas...it will save you alot of $$$ in the long run.
