Using different lines

[dafidav]

Hey guys

Just been reading through the forum and I was wondering if you guys have multiple reels all with different line for different type of fishing or do you only have 2-3 reels and swap over the line when you need to change?

If the latter, how do you go about taking the line off the current spool and storing it?

Cheers

You are better off purchasing an extra spool for you reels if they don't come with an extra one.

Most good quality reels come with 2 spools.

I have 2 daiwa excellers with 2 spools. on my 2500 reel i have 10lb mono for surface lures, and 10lb braid. on the 2000 i have 8lb braid and 3lb braid. it doesnt take long to change the spools over and saves money on buying different reels.

cool, the reel i have only came with 1 spool, ill check to see if a 2nd spool can be purchased

cheers

I prefer to have multiple outfits with different line or different setups, the last thing you want when you're on the water is to see a school break the surface or have something happen and then be sitting there trying to swap spools and tie on a new lure etc.

It's easier just to pick up the next outfit which is already rigged and start casting, nothing hurts more than a missed opportunity.
