Galvanized all the way. I have some tip ups that have plastic spools and they are ok. I would rather have my old woodies with the galvanized though any time.
ALRIGHT ALRIGHT!!

I have homemade tip ups and I love them. JCaughtem made them for me. Using new wood and parts from old ones that I had.
If fishing was work I'd never be sick!
