Well said :) . Next I will replace the levelwind guide with a metallic one ( I will buy a cheap multiplier with a solid levelwind guide that is dimensionally close to the Fathom one and swap them over).

Now my Fathom sports a full metal levelwind guide in place of its original. This was posible because I could pull the levelwind wire guide, shape it to match and trim as needed. To ensure that the wire will not come out of the levelwind guide body I used Super glue.

Since doing these modifictions my Fathom is performing well with zero malfunctions. It has brought to the landing net good sized brim on the Don Navigation Canal. Now I have to figure out a way to bring double figure barbel or chub on the Derwent.
