20 lb line is a better choice and yes it comes pre spooled. We got these for our daughter and her husband for Christmas and they use them all the time and love them

The 808 can hold 80 powerpro braid on zebco's bowfisher and i have loaded it with 50 lb. Braid,probably around 200 yds. It is smaller diameter than 20 lb. Mono so it casts further. Only use powerpro, other brands are bad about burying the line in the spool so u cant cast.

The reel comes spooled with stiff 20 lb test line. As such, the casting distance isn't too great but isn't a factor if you fish close to shore or in a boat. The Zebco Cajun Red Cast 20 lb line is a better choice if you want to improve casting distance. Of course you can drop down to lighter line if you catch smaller catfish. I'm very pleased with this Zebco Catfish combo outfit.

It is designed to be an ultrlight so I would say it is designed to hold 4 to 6lb line. I do not know home much line it holds. I loaded it from a bulk spool. I would guess 100yds of 6lb. But that would be a guess.

Kenny, Stren makes various size spools. However, it depends upon Amazon as to what sizes they offer. Other retail outlets and catalogs will carry different size spools if Amazon doesn't have the one you want. And remember what old fishermen say, fishing is a jerk on one end waiting for a jerk on the other. Tight lines.

it comes with 20lb test line but if you use a composite line 30 lb test would be fine . the rod is medoum action so it should handle up to a 40 or 50 lb fish.

I just put new line on my old spool, 5min, you can get new spools at lowes I think but why.

I just went to walmart bought a 100' line for 4 bucks, and when it was empty I saved it and put the spool on the ground and wind it around the small 100' dispenser, much easier. It takes a spool or two for my corner yard, much better.

I have used 5lb spools of various brands and they fit fine. Dont forget to get a cutter. I thought it had one built in but it doesnt. Really a nice buy on this.

You can use the regular 0.065 line that comes in bulk 200" I do not think that 0.095 will fit as you cannot get the line in holding slot.Only point getting line and spool is if you lost/broke spool.

I'm not an expert. I did give this thing a low star rating, and a B&D; representative contacted me. Maybe if you do the same, someone from B&D; will contact you. Or try their website. I'm still pretty frustrated with this thing. I bought some bulk line and wound the existing spool, and it's semi-functional. Good luck.

If you check the gauge of the line you can usually buy pre-packed spools that are cheaper than Black & Decker. I'm not sure what you mean by using your own line.

I got a full spool of 4wt on mine. But...there is NO room for backing. Works great!

from what I have read yes you can use non proprietary spools. which means any brand as long as it is the 1.75mm

The spools I received came in cardboard trays stacked in the shipping box. Each spool was individually sealed in plastic. It did not come with the thread holder that is shown in the picture. to keep mine dust free, I store mine in plastic stackable drawers that I bought at Walmart.

I use 4lb test on my #20 reel, 10 & 15 lb test line is too large for this reel.

I'm not sure but I've bought several different brands of 3 and 5 pound spools and it worked great. You tighten the wing nuts to keep it from moving while driving if its on a trailer

I think you must qualify what you are looking for in a reel. Basics are: the 50LD holds 310 yds of 50# test versus 114h2Lw 560 yds of 50# test. The ld is a lever drag with a preset versus just a preset star. The 50ld is about 20oz lighter. A main question you must ask is do you want to use mono or braid? I got the 114h2lw because I could get line capacity out of a super mono at way less money than braid, plus I liked the true free spool. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask more questions.
