Does anyone use reels with 100m spools? I'm looking to purchase a reel to use with a float rod and was wondering if getting one with a 100m spool would be beneficial or do I go for a larger spool and using backing line? Sorry, if the question seems odd, I'm just starting to relive my youth

Thanks for everyone's feedback. I'll try and get down my local tackle shop to see what they can offer me.

I'm wanting to get back into course fishing starting with float fishing on a local river and also some lake fishing. I haven't bought a rod in some 20 years. What kind of length would I be best buying? I was thinking 11ft, but have been told by someone else that 12ft may be better. Also should I be looking to get a 3 or 2 piece? Any help is appreciated.
