Hi guys,

It's been a while since I respooled my spod and marker reels and they look like they could do with a refresh. I think the last time I bought, it was from a Chinese seller on eBay?

I don't recal the specifics, but did it have to include 'deema' or something? Have been looking on Ali etc.

Thoughts? Any links or recommendations would be appreciated

You could always reverse the line so the stuff at the back of the spool comes to the front
