What Happens to a DAM Quick When it Goes in a Washing Machine?

I am not sure, Greg —-

Probably since line technology has come a long ways in 39 years (1983 model 1401) —- and I am not sure that braid was a thing back then —- or even invented yet?

Likely referring to old fashioned mono.

Here is a 41 lb. King caught with one of the DQ 3001's that I am restoring to new for this gentleman.

Kenai River, Alaska —- early 80's.

Finished up the restore on one of the DQ 3001's last night.

These are extremely tough and capable reels.

Hmmm any chance that drag knob would fit a Penn 714z or 716z? 🤔

Can you imagine the noise that would have made in the DRYER?
