"Ok, now here's the reel, I've removed it from the rod, so you can look a little bit closer at it. The drag knob for tightening the drag and the other side, we've got the handle. And then this is the foot of the reel. This is where it actually attaches to the rod. Most reels you can remove the spool by some type of mechanism. With this particular reel, there is a little lever there. Just pull that back and then the reel comes off of the spool. Sometimes, you might want to have extra spools with different lines on it, so that's how you would remove them. Usually, when you replace the spool, put it on the reel, push down and kind of turn and you'll usually hear it click back onto the reel."
