A simple device that enables twisted fishing line to be easily untwisted is disclosed. The device comprises a shaft surrounded with a helical groove or channel around which fishing line passes while being loaded onto a fishing reel. The helical grooves or channels remove twist from the fishing line caused by a rotating bail on a fixed spool reel. The device can be used with any reel, but is particularly well adapted for fixed spool spinning or fixed spool spin-cast reels.
