Know of any outlets that do the spare spools?

They come up on eBay occasionally. Apart from that I've struggled to find anyone. Jim's Reel Shop website says they have them, but they don't.

Yup! I found that out too with Jim. Nowhere else I can see them. From my understanding it's a reel that was produced for the European market and has now been discontinued.

One more thing guys; read reports of the reels handle turning a copper color. Did your reels suffer from that too?

I have had my Penn affinity carbon black reels for about 2 years now, they have been brilliant... One thing though on one reel, when the clutch is loose it doesn't go as loose as the other two, I'm not sure why atm?

I have seen that in pictures but not on my ones.
Are you sure?
