Double check the yoke on the Lexa. I've found wear and curly shavings of plastic in the ones I've serviced. There is also a tiny brass clip that sits in the center of the yoke that comes off and causes all sorts of grief.

The mooching concept is very foreign to me. What is the advantage of that type of reel? Looks like a fly reel that isn't really a fly reel.

these reels are easiest for me if i use them like a spinning reel, from the left.  these guys crank from the right side.  it's all backwards!
