Ima Bass Ninja Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Does anyone else like having there reel buzz when casting. I don't know why but for some reason i like to put a sound to the action i doing. Anyone else like to have this when casting? Here's the sound i am talking about listen at around 1:35 when he cast Quote
Super User J Francho Posted January 3, 2011 Super User Posted January 3, 2011 That isn't the reel, its the bait. : Quote
Ima Bass Ninja Posted January 3, 2011 Author Posted January 3, 2011 Ummm..I gonna have to disagree with ya there. 1.) if it was the bait you wouldn't be able to hear the sound for as long as you do in the video. 2.) I own red eye shads and have never heard them make that kind of a sound...ever. 3.) i have reels that sound exactly that way no matter what i throw. And yes i do maintain and lube them. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted January 3, 2011 Super User Posted January 3, 2011 What I heard and saw at that point was a chrome blue trap ripping, and making a trap noise at that point, but the video skipped a lot so, who knows... Anyway, it depends on what bearings and what braking system as to what "sound" your reel makes. Quote
Ima Bass Ninja Posted January 3, 2011 Author Posted January 3, 2011 Ahh i see....yea its right after the underwater scene. when he actually cast. So back to the original question..I take it you are not a fan of noise when casting? Quote
Super User J Francho Posted January 3, 2011 Super User Posted January 3, 2011 Only if its a noise that says something is broke. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 The only advice we can give you without hearing it is to give it a nice cleaning. If it still continues, maybe its time to send it in to get professionally done, it the reel is even worth it :-/ Check out http://www.delawarevalleytackle.com/ One other thing, are you using braid? That could the noise you are hearing, depending on what type of braid you are using. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 I couldn't make out anything definitive from that video either. Bearing noise is usually described as whine rather than a buzz, but really all anyone can recommend sight unseen is a proper cleaning and lube. Quote
hitchhiker Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 At 1:35 I hear a whirr from the cast. I don't hear the bait rattling like a spray can, or a baby rattle. Quote

OK a whirr it is then. ;D ...and I'm not trying to get rid of the sound, i actually like it. I definitely know its not from cleaning it or lube cause i do that at least once a year and mine still whirr( ;D) they have since i bought them. I've noticed it mostly on KVD's stuff but also some others while watching fishing shows. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted January 3, 2011 Super User Posted January 3, 2011 OK, now that Youtube isn't locking and skipping, I hear it. Typical sound from a Quantum. Doesn't mean anything. Why would it matter? Quote

Why would it matter? From a performance stand point it doesn't matter. I was just asking if i am the only one who actually likes to hear that sound when i cast. If ya don't, ya don't ,if you do, you do, its a simple question really Quote
Vinny Chase Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Anyone else like to have this when casting? I guess I'm a little confused by this question...I would prefer no sound, but if it doesnt have to do with anything internal I am fine with it. Quote

I prefer to hear the sound. That's all i was asking. Quote

Why would it matter? Quantums are noisy on the cast....Is your reel a Quantum? I have nothing against them but I have two and a buddy has a few blue Tours, all noisy on the cast. Quote
Jaheff Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 I wonder what KVD sounds like when he farts? : Quote
