Answer 1

Try filling in the grooves with a good hard setting epoxy. This should make the plastic bottom of the retriever nice and smooth again. You might need to do a little sanding after the epoxy sets to get rid of any rough spots.

Answer 2

adding only that finish the job above by using a buffing wheel to polish it all up, itwill give the edges a more smooth uniformity. but!  buying a new spool isn't very hard to do, simply contact the reel company's repair department. give them the model number and they will send one out in the mail...
