    I will because if i loose the knob to much i immediately get a backlash in middle air

    i will see him again next week, i'll do what you recommend and ...i star to think the problem is me hehe... thanks the knob is set so the lure falls and when it hit the floor does not get a backlash, and the mag brake in 3 or 4 i think but all reels are set different since i use them for different types if lures

    Thanks for the info, he was using berkley trilene 20 lb mono. about the service you mention, i hope not since my oldest reel is from o May of this year. I will change the line in one of the revo SX, since are the only one that i can compare and see if there is a difference between the two Thanks

    i really doubt they need to be cleaned yet, since my oldest one is from May, this year and i don't go fishing more the 3 to 4 time a month (sadly ) but i can check on that. Thanks

    i use different types of lures, the heavy one get farther but not as his. As mention before his cast is almost twice longer than my better cast. these are my reels and rods 1. revo sx with 7 ft Orra sx (2nd gen) combo rod medium heavy 2. revo sx with 6.6' orra sx (2nd gen) combo rod medium 3. revo stx with 6.6 veeritas 2.0 medium heavy 4. orra sx with berckly cherrywood HD rod (hybrid rod) i normally cast lures between 3/8 to 1/2 oz but i have some 1/4 and 3/4 ones, but no big difference in distance between the 1/2 and the 3/4 cast

    Hi Yesterday i met a guy fishing, he has a Black max and a pro max both last generation, what surprise me about that, is that i have a 1 orra SX (2nd gen), 2 Revo SX and 1 Revo STX (all revos are 3rd gen) and he cast almost as twice the distance i can cas even if i use a heave lure, so i ask he about his magical reel, he told me that the he upgrade the black max with an Orra 1st gen bearings and he upgrade the pro max with other reel bearings that i don't remember the name. Any ideas that can help me upgrading my reels, i fish from the bank so i need distance. by the way, i use kastking 40lb braided line on all 4 reels and i already try different settings on my reel brakes. thanks in advanced.

    Hi I purchased an Abu Garcia Revo MGX (new) in May 2017, i bearly use it, but it is starting to have problems, the reel handle suddenly turns heavy when i rotate my hand to the left in order to make to walk the dog, with the rel handle pointing upwards, thats one, the other is that i have 1 orra sx, 2 revo sx and 1 revo stx and all cast farther than the MGX, i already tried defferent lures, settings, rods etc.. with no different results, any idea? thanks

    Flurocarbon leader same result, no bites, i think its really the speed, i think i will sale my revo MGX and STX for a slower ones there are 7.9:1 and 8.1:1 respectively.

    Great advice, thanks

    ?
  17. grayfox0327
    Thanks for the explanation, now i get the point. ? So i think that my 30lb braided - 30 lb fluorocarbon is a bad idea right? Braided is 0.25 mm and fluoro is 0.40 mm ?
  18. grayfox0327
    Thanks really good info. Thanks
  19. grayfox0327
    the line types, monofilament (mono) and fluorocarbon line (fluoro)
  20. grayfox0327
    Im not expert at all in this matter but it sounds weird to me, why using for example a 50 lb main and a 15 lb mono o fluorocarbon leader, the line will break at it weakest point which is the 15 lb line, i want to understand because i use a 30 lb braid with a 30 lb fluorocarbon leader as a test purpose, i normally use only braided line 30 lb or 40 lb for everything.

    Amistad reservoir (amistad lake) is where i fish and the water is clear, not super clear but you can se the lure like 4 fts underwater or even deeper, last night a tie a 30lbs kastking flurocarbon leader to my 50lbs kastking braided line, i know that that make it less stronger since the leader is 30lbs but will be just as an experiment, to see if i see any difference between that one and my other 50lbs braided only reel.

    Thanks for the info, by the way i fish in Del Rio, Texas, not western MA.
  23. grayfox0327
    THANKS
  24. grayfox0327
