Hi all, I have this reel and its a good reel for small reef fish here in hawaii. My question though is what kind of oil do i use for the felt washers? I have ruled out switching to carbontex because all i use it for is small reef fish that are rarely going over a pound. I just wanted to give it some maintenance since i have some time on my hands.
even for light drag applications, carbon fiber shines. in part it is a function of the line weight to drag ratio. drag settings in the 30% range put alot of stress on the line. the principals are the same, whether we are talking about 2 pound test or 200 pound test.
