the 6/130 tells me that the reel it self is some what smaller than the 8/140.
if all you are fishing for is gills, that dosnt mean a thing to you.
summer time for gills, I use 4lb and winter time I use 2lb.
you should be able to get spare spools for any bass pro reel at bass pro shop. unless it is a coule three years old. many reels when you buy them in a box comes with one spare reel, if you buy the combo rod and reel you wont get a spare spool.
if not try ebay, or post the modle and a photo of the reel here and if anyone here has one they may be willing to part with it.
I my self use a shimano with quick fire II and rear drag system. it is rated for 4lb to 8lb. I have two of them because I like them so much, and I have spare spools for each, so I always have a spool filled with 4lb, 6lb and 8lb line. for bass 6lb and bigger fish 8lb.
I use my reels both summer and winter. I just switch out the 5.6 foot rod for a 3 foot rod come ice season.
for gills you will be happy with any of those reels, but if you are like me and like to target a number of different fish, then you may want to select a reel that will allow you to go from the 4lb line to 8lb line.
