Just the job be perfect for it your not using the drag so it will last years my old Mitchell spod reel still works fine that has took some stick, no need to splash out on spod gear.

Yeh I’ll respool it with the braided marker line I have I’m sure the line that comes with it is useless - cheers for the reply 👍
