Tips
- Make sure the folding handle is extended during use. You should hear it click into place. Press button in, to fold handle back in for storage purposes.
- Hand- tighten the reel handle tightener/loosner knob before use and especially after any adjustments. Regular use of the reel will cause a bit of normal loosening over time. Like a bike with gears- a quick hand-tighten of major parts before use should happen every so often.
- Transport carefully. The bail will stick out farther than the collapsed handle. The less banged-up the reel is the longer it will last.
- General Maintenance - To prevent long term rusting or corrosion, get water and/or grit out of the reel after each use. Remove the reel from the rod and tighten the drag. Wipe down exterior. Use low pressure water to rinse any build-up. Dry reel thoroughly. Loosen drag. There is not a single right way to occasionally deep clean and lubricate- clean all interior parts, grease the gears, clean and oil bearings. It can be an in-depth process and should be handled carefully.
- Replacement reel parts are not available through us. Please be cautious if you decide to take it apart- there are many small pieces that, if you loose or break, we do not sell separately.
- Store reels with drags loosened.
