    I have this Abu Garcia Ambassadeur 4600c and it was a little dirty and hadn't been used in a while. It casted ok but it needed some love. So i watched a video on taking it apart, cleaning, and reassembly. But now it doesn't work, it doesn't freespool, the crank is hard to turn, and I can't seem to find the problem

    I recently (and by recently, I mean yesterday) bought a Shimano Cardiff 300A from Bass Pro Shops. A few hours after buying, I lined it up and went out and started throwing 1.5oz swimbaits on it for around 3 hours with no problem. Today, I went to use it and it started making a squealing sound when I casted it and it wouldn't cast far. Then, when I tried to adjust the spool, I noticed the reel did not go into free spool at all when I pressed down the thumb bar. I haven't taken the reel apart, as I don't know if that voids the warranty. I just bought this reel yesterday, and would appreciate any help I could get. - Davis M

    Hello. I am looking into starting to throw smaller swimbaits around the 1 - 2oz range, the Daddy Mac Viper Sunfish (1.3oz) and Sebile Magic Swimmer (1.5oz) are two examples. My problem is I got a Kastking Royale Legend baitcaster, but I don't think it can hold up to these baits in the 2oz range. Anyone have a recommendation for someone who knows very little about swimbait reels? Any suggestions are very much appreciated. - Davis M

    So I got started using bait casters last year. I got cabin fever here in the NE after hunting season and purchased 3 new combos. I got a bunch of different brand reels all around the $100.00 mark to try out, and see what brand I like best. I got a lews speed spool, an abu garcia ora winch, and a quantum escalade HD. I have been practicing casting in the yard and have gotten pretty good. Distance isn't great but I hope that it is coming soon. The problem is I cannot cast the Quantum without backlashing. I have tried mono, braid, and fluorocarbon and it is just birds nest after birds nest. I tried searching for reel review on this but have come empty- has anyone ever used this reel? If so let me know they worked out for you.
