any line will "asshole" if it gets enough...

twists in it. The key is make sure it isn't loaded with twists prior to tacking. Faking it down will prevent assholing and having someone tend it while it's paying out is a plus. If the line has accumulated alot of twists, toss it over the side and let it trail for a bit. That will let all the twists work out.
