Hi guys so firstly...I have brought a shimano ultegra spod reel...does anyone know if the spool reducers fit onto this reel ok???
Secondly I have Berkley whiplash 32lb braid to go on there which is 300m but only 0.10mm in diameter...so just wondering with the 3500 spool reducers on will this fill the spool without any backing line??
Thanks for any help 🙏

Best advice I can give with braid is never fill the spool. Spod reel spools tend to be shallow anyway, I wouldn't back it.

I wouldn't fancy hitting a clip with a full Spod on 0.1 braid, although whiplash usually state lower diameters for some reason so you might be fine.

Whiplash has a flat profile , the diameter is measured at its thinnest point
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
