Luke,
can you advise as to whether the 20000 spool will fit the 10000XG?  does the 10000XG come with a larger spare spool as per the SW?

Andrew

the existing reel is already a great piece of equipment but the issues that I would like improved from the current reel are weight, the bail arm and the drag knob. I really hate the drag knob of the existing reel!! It seems like they have done that so I am looking forward to seeing it.

All of those issues have definitely been addressed - hopefully they are significant enough to get a big tick from consumers.

I can confirm that there is a new drag knob (not just a redesign to fit in with the concept of the new reel).

No to both those questions.

the 20000 spool won,t fit on the 10000 XG   ... the 10000 share the same chasis as the 8000; only with a deeper spool


i,m unsure about the SW 18000 HG that might fit on the FA 10000 reel . and i am still finding out if this will fit or not ..

Spools from the new reels will not fit the FA's. The new spools are taller and slightly wider, therefore will not fit.

Mick, the spare spools are readily available at a retail level.
Just ask Duncan when you're there next

actually Mick, I have very recently gotten some spools at a retail level locally.
I do have spools from overseas as well but as I said, they are available here.
