Reel Repair by Alan Tani

I have yet to fish my T60XN. Mine is silver frame, black spool and red side plates... I also have the 3/0 and 4/0 XN reels in same colors... I've fished both of those and they preformed as you would expect. Caught my first Yellow tail on the 4/0 XN... a 25# fish.


Cool

Welcome from the SoCal Inland Empire - john

Daiwa Whisker SS1300 also my favorite for smallmouth bass when I lived in the Midwest ,with a long cast spool and the way line lay out very even allow to make long cast . I have 2 ss1300 and 1 ss 1600

Patience is a virtue.  "preaching to the choir"   
 Looks like people coming in and lighting candles , but not sitting in the pews.
      I don`t want to preach /teach to a empty church , give me input I will give you output . 

    There is a lot of misinformation ,bad practices and not paying attention at times and the lack of details .  Pull up random videos , watch / look for the mistakes .

  Here is something to look at , why does the line spool up on it`s own in a level manor ?

Daiwa G 4000 is close to BG 4000 but it had a better drag ,they call power drag . It have 3 ball bearings but only 1 in handle ,1 in rotor and 1 in spool .with more dish drag I don't think it needed to up grade drag in this reel,it's more than the shaft can handle or you get a bent shaft

i would normally stack them "gear - |(()) - bearing. this will increase the drag range.

not at all. 

Very light Gfish ,this one belong to my son in law ,it's better built than mine with Magnesium flame and feel stronger .He caught a bunch of white bass few week ago

Good to have you here.  Bill, SoCal mountains

I learn that when they print " design and engineering by Dam Germany " means they made some where else not Germany
