Got my Shimano SLX XT spooled at Cabela’s and bought 150 yards of line and told the employee it can hold 130 yards.
I came back and the guy told me “I saw there was room so I was gonna put on the full 150 and it turns out there was 200 yards of line in there.”
Just wanted to see how negatively it would affect casting and bird nesting as it’s my first time using braid.
Should I pull some line out and cut it or just let it rock?

Definitely cut some out. I always leave about a fingernail worth of space from the top of the spool to the line
