Since most of my fishing trips are two to three hours, I never carry any extra line spools anymore.                                                  I make sure my reels are filled before the trip, and I've never needed to respool my reels while I'm on the water.                              If I were fishing for a much longer time, I'd probably carry a spool, or if I were travelling to a new lake, or out of town of course I'd pack extra line. But, for trips close to home, I never do.                Do you carry extra spools of line as part of your tackle?

Just those that I use for leaders on my braid reels - when I use a leader. Otherwise, no.

I have eight combos in the rod locker and four or five on deck. If one runs out of line i have another one ready to go.

I always have one line storage  mostly fluorocarbons that I use for leaders about four or five spools with me from 6lb test to 17lb test. and two braided spool 30lb and 40lb with me.

I carry WAY too much, so I'm no help. LOL

 

Probably 2,000 yards of braid and 1,800 yards or so of fluoro in different lb test.

When I go one multiple day trips, I always have extra line. 

I keep 3 spools of floro, and 2 spools of copoly.  The floro is for leaders, and the copoly is just in case I need to respool. I didn't use copoly on any of my setups (mono, floro, and braid) but I figure its a good middle ground if I need to respool a mono or floro reel. If big game came in smaller spools I would probably keep that instead of the copoly. 

For just a day trip I'll carry an extra reel 

I keep several spinning reel spools in in the boat filled with different kinds and sizes of line so if the situation calls for a change I can quickly do it.  I also carry some extra fluorocarbon for bait casters.  That’s why boats have storage boxes.

Yes I do ~

I am a 4# test person. Until a over sized pike takes over a dock and ruins C & R  for the kids & seniors. I do have heavy gear & big barbless hooks for them. I tow them quickly to a distant baitfish area and release. A night catch & release works best on the pike. 

I keep some line in the boat to use when I need to make leader setup. I keep two extra reels in different gear ratios in the boat. If I have a problem with a reel I can swap them out and keep fishing.

Used to carry extra spools for my spinning reels, back I used mono. Now,  the only time I carry extra line when I am on a road trip.

I carry 3-4 spools for my various leaders

Yeah I carry extra line with me every time I go out. Just always a habit i've had

No.  Like Phil, I carry extra rods for local fishing.  Like Catt, I carry extra reels when visiting relation in Florida.  I do have a few extra spools, but I've never taken one with me yet.  Normally the extra spools are set up for different rods.  Like a Pixy or two...one spooled with line for 'normal' use and one spooled with light line for lighter than normal lures (lighter lures for me).

I carry extra spools like @A-Jay.  Not as many as he does but I'm working on it.  

   Light line? Yep (both Daiwa Fuego spinning and Shimano NASCI). Heavier line, like 12 lb. test and up? Nope.             jj

I often just fish with one or two setups so I always bring extra line and usually a backup rod/reel so if I have problems my day isn’t ruined 

The only time I bring extra line is when I'm on a trip out of town.

With a kayak, you're limited to about 3 rigged rods and reels. 

My bow hold has 3-pc spinning, 3-pc bait, and 3-pc fly, back-up or opportunity. 

My lap hatch has a pelican with back-up bait reel and back-up spinning spool
