With this reel

https://www.bosfish.co.uk/f_index.html

if i want to put 15lb line on for spinning how much line should i put on the spool bearing in mind that it holds 200 yrds of 10 lb line

cheers

plenty ,you will never be able to cast ALL the line off spinning ,the design of fixed spool reels dictates that the more line that comes of the spool the harder it is for the rest to follow.
just buy 200yds of 15lb line and fill it ,you will have some left for your sister to make bracelets

this may sound stupid but when will i know it is full

and how much does 200 yrds of 15 lb line cost

it doesent cost much if you get ordinary line rather than named line ,fill your spool to 3mm of the lip.
i can suggest you buy a good alround book about angling this will show you all you need to know
infact if you get your parents permission send me your address by e`mail and i will send you one.but please do let your parents know first i wouldnt like to be accused of "grooming" or leading kids astray etc.If your dad/mum has an email address get them to give me the ok first

iv got a few books but nothing on filling spools etc

iv got

course fishing essentials

and iv read mr crabtree goes fishing

but thanks for the offer

the people on this site are really friendly

thank

you
