Suspendingjerk Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 The line is laying pretty uneven on my spool. It keep trying to wrap below the spool. It didn't come with any shims. Even when I make a long cast to even it out it still lays heavy down low. Any ideas? Quote
Suspendingjerk Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 I found this under the spool and removed it. It seems a lot better now. But it also feels like I have a lot less range in my drag. Like if I set my drag on the lower end my spool feels somewhat loose... Maybe it's just me? But other than that my line does lay a lot more even now. http://i1381.photobucket.com/albums/ah239/Ralemonds1s/Mobile%20Uploads/0320152003_zpsoqq9vzoq.jpg The bread tie is so I don't loose it. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted March 21, 2015 Super User Posted March 21, 2015 Remove a shim from under the spool. Too much line on the bottom remove a shim, too much on top add a shim. My Daiwa tierra had a line spoolng problem, it has a metal piece that I don't know how to remove to add a shim. I sent into Daiwa a few years ago and I needed a part, which they fixed at no charge after warranty. I'm having the same problem again, not too bad so I'm living with it. Quote

Thats the shim alright, you didnt get extras in the box? My Lexa never needed extra shims but it had 2 or 3 in a tiny ziploc with the instructions. That shim would have no effect on your drag. Quote
