Does anyone know where you can get spare spools for the Okuma reels?

I've got two Okuma Epixor reels...one for bobber fishing and the other for my wife. I (we) love them!! Super smooth drag, good casting, overall good reel and value.

I also keep two Okuma Conisseur rods in my boat for guests and for back-up...you can never have too many. I've had a lot of people compliment them. They are plenty strong, decently sensitive, and for the price, who gives a rip if you break one!!

My experience with Okuma reels has been mixed. I managed to bust one of their surfcasting reels with very little effort earlier this season, but have nothing but good to say about their smaller reels (e.g. bass and trout). Nice price, too.

I won a okuma rod and reel combo in a trout tournament a few years back and it seemed to work okay. Anything works great when it's free though!
