What do you use to indicate what weight line is on a reel. I run out of the little stickers that come with a spool after the second reel?

I think I own too many rod/reel combos... I know the line size by the rod/reel I am using. I have combos for each size line that I use... Maybe I should get some help!

I have been using the white cloth medical tape and marking it with a extra fine sharpie, But it doesn't stand up. so I was looking for a durable alternative.

There was a go who marketed these small stickers to place on your reel and you could write the line weight on them...they used to be for sale on basstackledepot.com...don't see them anymore...but I know the guy and I will see if he is still selling them or who he sold the item to.

me personally...I can pretty much know whats rigged since I don't use to many sizes anymore, including on my spare spools..i used to use the plastic spare spool clips and color coded them and you could write on them with sharpies.

As promised...

Keep in mind they are water resistant - uv protected so they won't fade and they STAY on the reels super well!
