I just bought a new spinning reel for my ultra light( http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-Crappie-Maxx-Signature-Series-Spinning-Reel/product/10210590/-1758646 ). I fish on a budget and I found this reel for $20 bucks. I am surprise at the quality for 20 bucks . I had a nice pflueger combo before it was stolen . Anyways I am taking the plunge from 4 lb line down two 2 lb for trout in taney. The question I have is the reel came with two spools one metal and one graphite. What are the pros and cons between the two different spools and would one be better then the other for the lighter line.

jagermeister anyone?

The aluminum spool is probably a better spool. I don't know why they include the cheap plastic one. I usually just use the aluminum spool. Keep the cheaper one for backup in case the aluminum one gets dropped and bent.

There's a fine line between fishing and sitting there looking stupid.

I doubt you would notice much difference, but I could be wrong.I'd spool up the spare with 4 or 6 lb. line just in case you need it. Some of those Taney fish get pretty big you know.

If fishing was easy it would be called catching.
