Dang the ground squirrels. They can be a real nuisance.

The 114H went together pretty well with the complete drag set. I'm not sure that the tension washers are perfectly tensioned at the handle, but I think it will be OK. I was lucky to find a video that had a reel that had the exact same setup at the upper drag location. Mine has the EZ access to the drag, as well as the "top hat" fitting at the upper drag. I put the thicker tension washer under the "top hat", and the thinner one between the star and the handle, FWIW. I believe the reel will work well as a deep water rock cod rig when the time comes. Cheers.
