Hi all ive purchased some tournament ts5000t and want to put some flurocarbon on using a 200m spool of 0.37 diameter line, using the spool reducer will this come up to short keeping in mind using flurocarbon u need to keep below the lip of the spool ?
Cheers

If you look at the Japanese line capacity on the box -

With the Spool reducer 200m of '5 gou' (0.37) should fill the spool perfectly however should and will are two different things and you might have to adapt

Was looking to see if anyone on here has actually spooled up with 0.37 of 200m to see what they ended up with?

I don’t have spool reducers but I have 250m of 20lb x line which I’m sure is 0.37 and it leaves it perfectly below the rim, slightly under filled which is what you want to stop it springing off
