Shimano Curados spool spins while jerkbait fishing

[14Gills]

Hello my fishy friends!

 

I had something happen to me today that I don’t under stand.  This happened when fishing my jerk-bait. I casted it out and then started to jerk retrieve it and my anti revers just let go and my spool backspun and nested on me. This has never happens to me before today. I was not sure what happend the first couple of times but as it became frequent so I started to pay attention and realized what was happening. Has this ever happened to you?  How do you fix this issue?  Is my real broken? Please help, Thanks

It may be as simple as deep cleaning including the AR or it may require replacing.  Let me know if I can help.

There ya go! Gotta love it when somebody answers the questions AND provides the solution. If you can’t fix it yourself(and I’m guessing you can’t) send it to Mike and get it done right!

Did you add any lube/grease to AR bearing recently? AR bearing don't get along with grease,m. Otherwise you would need to replace that. On some of shimano's AR bearing, I found it pain in the rear end to remove. I would op to send to DVL if you don't know what you are doing.
