kcdinkerz Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 So I was cleaning a bc reel and accidentally knocked my spool over, it hit the concrete and now it has a small dent in the ring. Will this effect casting? Quote
John G Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 How bad is the dent? Can you install the spool and does it spin freely without making contact with the frame? Quote
Super User Sam Posted May 2, 2015 Super User Posted May 2, 2015 Probably, but it depends if you notice it. Give it a try and determine if it is detrimental to your use of the reel. If it is, order a new spool. Quote
kcdinkerz Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 Man I was scurred, went out this morning and tested it still throws fine. Did not want to fork out another 50 bucks for a spool Quote
Super User MickD Posted May 3, 2015 Super User Posted May 3, 2015 Not sure if the lip or the spool skirt was dented. If the lip, make sure the concrete didn't nick the lip, which can damage the line. If it did, smooth it up. Quote
