saragosa 14000 upgrade
Submitted by mullafied12 on Mon, 2011-07-25 11:54
I've just bought a saragosa 14000. Originally wanted an 18000 size reel but there was only a 14000 available and was at a good price. From what I understand it is possible to put the 18000 size spool from saragosas or spheros straight onto the 14000? Has any one done this and do you think it is worth it just for the extra line capacity? Looking to probably put 80lb braid onto it?
Secondly does anybody have an spare 18000 spools they're looking to offload?
Cheers
Simon

Yes the 18000 spool fits. I
Yes the 18000 spool fits. I got 2 18000 spools for mine, one loaded with 300m pe6 80lb. The other with 300m of 30lb braid with mono topshot for my slidebaiting. No you cant have one. The only reason you will need the extra capacity is if you think it will need it. If your only fishing 100m of water the 14000 spool will be fine. I got my spool for 50 bux.

cheers for that mate. where
cheers for that mate. where abouts did u get the 18000 for 50 bucks. I had a quick look online and have only seen them for around the $80 price range. Do u think the spool from a spheros would be equally as good as i assume that they would be cheaper?

I dont know if the speros
I dont know if the speros spool will fit. But I wouldnt even try anyway as the drag is better in the saragosa spool, which is pretty much what you pay for.
