Fenwick Rod Question.....reel Is Moving.

[Kabar]

Started fishing couple years ago, have a few rods....need some advice.

Fenwick Smalmouth crankbeit rod with Curado G.

Cant make the reel sit tight on my rod (the reel is moving slighty duing retrieve), should I send it to fenwick...it's under warranty.

Make a shim for it. Last time I had that problem I cut a small strip from a soda carton. Have stopped using that particular rod, but it worked like a charm while I still used it. I checked the forum and seems like it is a fairly common occurrence with various fixes. Good luck

Maybe put a little electrical tape or gaffers tape around the feet of the reel

The  four layers of electrical tape works great .Thank you.

Teflon plumbing tape works well and there is no adhesive residue to clean off later.
