Bimini twist with an offshore swivel knot is my goto set up for trolling lines. But I still like a nice 4' plus loop for the doubled up line.

I do the spider hitch to double the line but will give this a try. Looks easy enough.  t^

I use a similar method that utilizes the knob on a kitchen cabinet.   I would record the process but I would have too much to bleep out as my wife would be yelling in the background, "you are going to rip the ^&%#$$& door off its $%##@!*& hinges".

 Using the reel handle as shown in the video works out very well

I tried it like that but seem to have a hard time pulling the line back over the twists
