Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the spare spool, simply rotate the existing clutch cap counter-clockwise to remove it, lift the original spool off the main shaft, and slide the Gold Spare Spool into place. Ensure it sits flush on the drive gear before tightening the gold clutch cap back down.
Compatibility is strictly limited to the Nash Tackle Scope GTL 8000. It will not fit standard Scope 6000 models or other Nash reels. To care for the gold finish, wipe the spool down with a soft, damp cloth after every session to remove dust or salt residue. Periodically apply a light coating of reel oil to the inner shaft components to maintain smooth drag operation.
