Reel oil

[michaelw]

Is the oil you get when you buy a 525, 535 any good.

If not what do you use Touch wood not had a birds nest for ages but my reels seem to be running slow even with the brakes fully off.

Would now like to speed them up a bit but still use them as fishing reels and not casting reels.

Thanks in advance

try red rocket fuel

[keegy]

the oil you get with them is rocket fuel anyway, ( yellow. )

my old slidy mag 525 not the super mag i used to put gearbox in the bearings for fishing purpose, a lot depends how you cast how much line you have on reel plus line dia john

Whale Spit lube

[michaelw]

Alan how do you get them to spit as they swim by

will this speed the reel up

[alan]

it certainly will if it takes your bait

[alan]

I think it does a bit,then again distance casting is\'nt the end of the world,A well looked after reel is more important

Try disengaging one of the brake block. oh big word must lie down
