FAQs
Is this spool compatible with the standard XTB model?
No, this is specifically designed for the 'Longcast' (LC) version of the Big Baitrunner XTB.
Does it come with extra line?
No, the spool is sold empty and requires you to load it with your own choice of fishing line.
Will this fit the Shimano Big Baitrunner CI4+?
No, the CI4+ model uses a different spool architecture. Always verify your reel model before purchase.
Can I use this for saltwater fishing?
Yes, provided you rinse the spool thoroughly with fresh water after each session to prevent salt crystal build-up.
Does this include the spool cap?
No, the spool cap is part of your existing reel assembly; the item includes the spool body only.
Troubleshooting
Spool does not seat firmly onto the main shaft
Check that the drag washer is properly seated and that the spool pin is aligned with the housing slots.
Increased friction during the cast
Inspect the spool lip for any microscopic nicks or debris and clean the surface with a soft microfiber cloth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Genuine OEM part ensures perfect mechanical compatibility
- Allows for rapid adaptation to changing fishing conditions
- Helps preserve the life of your primary line by keeping backups ready
- Maintains the consistent drag performance of the original reel
Cons
- Compatible exclusively with the Big Baitrunner XTB LC model
- Does not include an additional drag washer or quick-drag knob
- Requires careful storage to prevent spool lip damage during transport
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your reel's drag is completely loosened before attempting to remove the existing spool. Ensure that the spool pin is correctly aligned with the oscillation gear housing when sliding the spare onto the main shaft.
Compatibility Note: This part is specifically identified as MPN 10TV7 and is tailored for the Shimano Big Baitrunner XTB Longcast. Attempting to use this on smaller Baitrunner models or older generation reels will result in fitment failure and potential damage to the reel's oscillation system.
Care Instructions:
- Always rinse the spool with fresh water after fishing in salt or brackish conditions.
- Store the spare spool in a protective pouch to avoid scratching the spool lip, as a nicked lip can lead to abrasive line damage or casting breakage.
- Keep the inner bearings and shaft area lightly lubricated with Shimano-approved reel oil.
