Spools?

[Alex from GA]

I have a couple of Tatula 100 reels from last year and would like a lighter spool.  I see Tatula SV spools on the internet for good prices and wonder what spools fit my reels.

I don't think SV spools fit, only BFS. 

 

But I'm sure someone smarter than me will know for sure ...

Assuming you have the last gen Tatula 100, the SV spools won't fit but you can get the Elite, Flip and Pitch as well as the Coastal 150 SV from The Tackle Trap or various spools from Aliexpress such as this Amo fixed inductor or SV brake Ray's spool in shallow and shallower.

How do I know what generation I have?

One vendor says the same spool fits these different models:  

2016 TATULA CT

2016 TATULA CT TYPE R

2017 TATULA CT CS

2017 TATULA CT CS TYPE-R

FUEGO CT

2019 TATULA 100

2020 Tatula Elite

2020 Tatula Elite PF

2021 Tatula CT

2021  Salamandura 150

 

These are all 34-mm dia spools, while Tatula 80 is 32-mm dia.  

 

Here's the line capacity on a 4-mm-deep spool

8LB 0.235mm 80 yd
10LB 0.260mm 75 yd
12LB 0.285mm 65 yd

 

If you're fishing mono/fluoro, I would skip the heavily carved spools, and stick to a solid or lightly vented spool.  

 

Installing a new spool, always remember to back way off on spool tension knob, because spindle widths vary - without this, you can damage the palm plate latch.  After you get the latch closed, set spool tension where you need.

Basically if it's not the 24 model and not from 2013-2015 then it's either the last gen 100 or a Tatula CT, which share the same spool dimensions anyways.

The boxes have TATULA 100XS.  The parts breakdown is 6Z024117 for the spool.  I want a lighter spool $ not $$$.  Thanks.
