Default Extra Spools

Anyone know where I can purchase a spare spool in town? I've got a new Shimano Symetre 2500 RJ and want to have a spare one for a quick setup change. I've tried Bass Pro and WSS but no luck...

after a quick peek, I found your solution.

I just use a typical CT reel with out the trigger, $30

Spare spools are usually pretty close to that price and you Only get a spool

For sure! So far though, no go. I've contacted Shimano, but haven't heard back.

Maybe try giving the Reel Doctor in Edmonton a call. I have noticed them being recommended before on here but haven't used them myself.
