    This is the second reason referred to in the old post. The change to a new material (blue ring) cured the problem and the current toothed harder plastic ones are even better.
  2. Delaware Valley Tackle
    The main cause is swelling of wet felt drag washers. Contact me directly for how to address the issue.
  3. Delaware Valley Tackle
    I have a couple of ideas, if you’d like to discuss them email me.

    Glad you’re doing better. I’m living with a near full depth tear of a rotator cuff muscle also treated with cortisone and PT. I’m not perfect but avoiding the knife and still fishing (not as much as I’d like)

    I’ve shared the link to the DVT Facebook page. I’ll check with Glenn to see if I can share it here.

    Not live but I’ll see if he can export the recorded file

    Hi everyone. Heads up, I’ll be doing an Instagram live talk @DaveMillerFishing. Tonight a little after 7pm et. He’s doing a recap of the BFL Chesapeake tx and I’ll be with him right after. It’s a chance to put a face with the name and see what we do if you don’t know. Hope to see you all there.

    Anytime. You know where to find me.

    Yes, bail wire bending and dirty hinges are the cause of this 90% of the time. Bail springs aren’t as common a problem now that compression springs are used instead of the old round ones.

    Boca is the big player. I have some here if you want to email me I’ll make a PayPal invoice
  12. Delaware Valley Tackle
    Hm. There’s room in my inbox but you can call me 973-459-2835 or email mlawson@delawarevalleytackle.com

    Yes, a good quality, SS bearing flushed and lightly oiled is plenty fast in real world scenarios. Bearings can be of ABEC quality but not gone thru the verification process which I suspect is the case with shimanos spool bearings.
  14. Delaware Valley Tackle
    After market ABEC 5 ss bearings from a trusted source will be cheaper than OEM bearings and as good or better, but if your ordering parts paying shipping twice might eat into the difference.
  15. Delaware Valley Tackle
    The deal with bearings is yes, many brands originate from the same sources but counterfeit is problem in the industry. For the few bucks you’ll save a reel or two, the legwork to find cheap and dependable suppliers isn’t worth the effort.
  16. Delaware Valley Tackle
    Where are you located? I can diagnose and get pricing for parts before you decide to scrap it.
  17. Delaware Valley Tackle
    I see lots of reels where even the max and min designation is impossible to see. If you can’t remember which way is which mark it.
  18. Delaware Valley Tackle
    I’m with this 100%. My hand makes little contact with the grip after the cast. Plus what we feel is movement of the blank more than vibration. Lighter is better imo but outside of that grip material and style is largely a cosmetic concern.
  19. Delaware Valley Tackle
    All the reel companies farm out some or all of their production for their own brands. All these “who makes…” discussions are somewhat irrelevant at the end of the day except unless one is looking to retrofit parts which are notoriously unavailable for store branded reels.
  20. Delaware Valley Tackle
    I don’t believe there is any direct correlation between size and power within a model. For example the shimano E50 and E200 had identical internals.
  21. Delaware Valley Tackle
    Best bet is to measure ID OD Width with calipers and order aftermarket bearings. You’ll get better grade bearing’s for less $.
  22. Delaware Valley Tackle
    Just fyi seat orientation (up locking VS down locking) has nothing to do with seat loosening. Don’t restrict your choices based on that.
  23. Delaware Valley Tackle
    You can order parts direct from Daiwa by calling them.
  24. Delaware Valley Tackle
    Where’s that ole patriarchy everyone’s crying about? Lol
