Stock Zonda spool is nice if you can get one cheap. I still prefer the stock alphas sv 105 spool with a tuned inductor. It works well up to 3/8oz ish baits. After that it doesn’t hold enough line for me. 

Thanks.  Spools I've found are very pricey.  I'd prefer to do some tuning on the inductor.  I guess the options are to beef up the spring a bit or shorten the induction cup.  I'll drag the little SV105 into the secret basement laboratory and commence with the experiments! 

 

Tight lines,

Swapping out the spring for a stiffer one should do the trick. While it’s apart I’d upgrade the ramp to the newer one to avoid any sticking. Contact Bryan (spankey) at Tackle Trap for the parts. They usually have both in stock. I had the inductor shortened on two of my sv103 spools by 40 thousandths. It helped a little but was a pain to do according to my buddy who did it.

The zonda spool is great for casting, and sucks for pitching.
