Does the handle have a locking screw for the handle under the bearing cover cap?

I haven’t taken the handle apart yet to find out. According to YouTube videos it’s supposed to.

Does it have a spool release to allow the line to go out by turning the crank backwards?

Yes it has a main shaft and gear unlock to allow back reeling.

I ordered the se2500hgfi. what i got only indicates 2500hg. is this the same thing?

Yes that is the correct reel, FI is just the series, the actual model. SE2500HGFI is the Shimano ItemNo.

I would like to fish trout on 4 lb line and sometimes larger fish with 10 lb line. Would the se2500hgfi be a good choice?

Heck yeh you can. Now this reel maybe a little bit for 4 lb lines. I would suggest using a little bigger line or 15lb braid with a smaller leader. I use 15-30lb braid with a 10-15lb floro leader to catch speckled trout in the gulf all day long. And I wouldn’t be scared to hook some reds also.
