Default Re: Buy new reel or buy combo ?

I must have dropped my reels while moving here and there over the years...all Shimano ultralites with the QuikFire one-hand cast feature bought new in the mid-1980s...and unrepairable I am told. My rods are all still good.

I don't see the one-hand cast reels on the market anymore. ANd I don't see them come with extra spools for different #test anymore either.

Problem is, w/o extra spools I need three reels for different line # options and I don't want to spend a ton on three. And again, the Walmart Shakespeare/Ugly Stick ultralite combos for $40 seems like a good value.

Any other local supply stores worth checking out ? I'm in Essex.
