    The Best T.V. Fishing presenters

    Always enjoyed the Day Ticket series with Richard Garner and Trevor Pritchard.To me each programme was just like a days fishing with your mates,plenty of banter and the occasional "wind up":D

    Are Shimano "D" and "OC" spools interchangeable.

    No,as I posted earlier,Felindre have the spare spools but need a reel to test them on.I've not been able to find a tackle shop in my area that has the D and OC of the same size in stock in order to try the swap.Shimano UK HQ say the linelay would be "affected" but couldn't find anyone who has...

    Licence issues

    There have been instances in the past where the DD has been taken multiple times causing accounts to be overdrawn and hassle in reclaiming the money.I'd rather just queue at the Post Office,pay the money job done.

    Wanted Shimano 8000xtea & 4000D spool

    Pretty certain the body of the 6000,8000 and 10,000 is the same so spools should be interchangeable.I believe that's the reason why the 5000 was dropped as its body size was unique to that reel.A phone call to Felindre should answer your question for definite,however they couldn't in the case of...

    Are Shimano "D" and "OC" spools interchangeable.

    Phoned Felindre today to see if they could answer my question.They had the spare spools but no reel to try them on,so still none the wiser except that OC spools are half the price of D's.

    Are Shimano "D" and "OC" spools interchangeable.

    I've just bought a 6000 D and wanted a spare spool,but baulked at the price.Just wondered if a same sized OC would fit. Pete.

    What's the difference between the Shimano D and OC range

    Just had a look at a website in New Zealand that gave a rough comparison.So the D has a one piece bailarm and carbon clutch material.Other than that the weight is similar and capacities the same.In the UK has the D been superceded by the DEU thus having a handle shape similar to the OC.I had...
