my christmas present to me arrived today a fin nor 12a its appx size of atd 80w or atd 80w. yee haw Darron ill be hunting you
does anyone have any experience in converting drag on 12a (appx 80w size reel) from cork to carbon fiber? reel looks pristine but there seems to be a high spot on drags when cranking with spool locked down. this reel is not for the shelf but to work and kill swordfish. think it would be neat to catch a sword on antique like this, so getting it overhauled is in the picture.
ooops typo--- reel is comparable in size to 80 stw or atd 80w

i read your comments on fin nor last night. reel came today and it definitely needs some work you noted in previous post you were gonna try removing cork and adding carbon fiber to drag did you do it and if so how did it work out.
