The Tibor Spare Spool - Everglades - Crimson transforms your trusted reel into a versatile, multi-line system ready for any challenge the flats can throw at you. Designed for the serious angler who needs to switch from a floating line for tailing redfish to an intermediate line for cruising bonefish in minutes, this spool eliminates the need to carry a second complete reel. It’s not just a backup; it’s a tactical advantage, delivering the ultimate in on-the-water efficiency and ensuring you have the right tool ready the moment opportunity strikes, all with the legendary Tibor performance you rely on.
Design
Machined for a perfect fit with the Tibor Everglades reel frame, this spool features a large arbor design with a vented, concave surface. This intelligent engineering reduces overall weight without sacrificing the structural integrity needed to fight powerful fish. The porting also aids in faster line drying, preventing mildew and extending the life of your backing and fly line. The concave arbor adds significant strength and increases line capacity for those long, blistering runs from permit or bonefish.
Finish
The spool is protected by a flawless Type II anodized finish in a striking Crimson color that is both visually stunning and incredibly tough. This specialized coating provides a hardened, corrosion-proof barrier, making it completely impervious to the harsh saltwater environment it was born to conquer. The finish resists scratches and dings from boat gunnels and rocks, maintaining its rich color and protective qualities season after season.
Materials
Crafted from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, this spool is built for maximum durability and rigidity. This material was chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring the spool can withstand the immense pressure of a powerful drag system and hard-fighting fish without warping or failing. The use of bar-stock aluminum guarantees a product free of imperfections, delivering lifelong performance.
Drag
Type: This spool is engineered to integrate seamlessly with the legendary Tibor Everglades open-hub cork disc drag system housed within the reel frame. The open design is simple, reliable, and dissipates heat effectively during long fights.
Materials: While the drag mechanism resides in the reel, this spool is built to handle the torque and heat generated by the reel's impregnated cork and stainless steel drag stack. Its precise tolerances ensure smooth rotation under heavy pressure, allowing the drag system to perform at its peak.
Arbor Size
Featuring a true large arbor, this spool offers significant performance advantages. It allows for rapid line pickup, a critical feature when a fast-moving fish turns and runs toward you, helping you maintain constant tension. The large diameter also dramatically reduces line memory, resulting in straighter casts, fewer tangles, and better presentations. Finally, it provides more consistent drag pressure as line peels off the spool.
Warranty
This Tibor spool is covered by the Tibor Reel Corporation's limited lifetime warranty for the original owner against defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty does not cover damage from accidents, misuse, or normal wear and tear on the finish. A service fee may apply for non-warranty repairs.
