penn 105c drag

[Alto Mare]

Oh I understood very well thats why I use it for surf fishing, Because of alot of sand wrecks reels fast and theres got to be a cheaper bearing than boca for it? Id hope if not and I cant make the drag better than a better reels a coming. Ive already lost 2 big somethings because of the drag so a better reel cant hurt:)

Finally figured out the problem took the drag apart degreased the plastic drag washers according to Mystic Reel Parts tutorial then after removing the spool I noticed that the little washer between spool and little sprocket was paper.    Switched that for some ones I made out of some thin teflon like material and all seems to be working great ,nice and smooth. So thanks for all your help and teaching me alot more about reels :-)  I got 3 more reels that need a cleaning and new drags so see you all soon

Glad you got it sorted out to your satisfaction --

That is what this site is all about -- trying to help others learn about and work on their own reels.

Good work...

Best,
