I recently picked up a Fury 703SF for a backup/multipurpose spinning combo and paired it up with a Mitchell 308 Pro. When I tighten the reel lock down, it doesn't tighten completely down, there is a good 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the plastic ring that is "exposed" for a lack of a better description. The area that is "exposed" does not cover the epoxy ramp that leads to the reel seat. Most of my other spinning rods tighten down to or past that epoxy ramp.
I'm not sure if this is just how the Furys are or if it is a defect. I actually prefer having it tightened down to the epoxy ramp so my index finger can touch the blank when fishing. Have any of you experienced this with your Furys?
I can try to post a picture later when I get off work. I was just curious if any of you have any ideas/thoughts/insights about this. Thanks!
