  1. Probably didn’t have something seated right in there. Drag washers can bind up slightly sometimes and just being off a little bit, means a whole lot.
  2. If there’s no shims to remove, which is odd to begin with. That means there’s Metal to Metal contact which is not good. The only way to fix it would be to increase the rotor height. This would involve a shim underneath the rotor. If this is a brand new(er)reel, I would contact Penn and Have them warranty it out. I haven’t taken any of the newer Penns apart to check them out inside. Not fond of the newer Penn spinners.
  3. $65 shipped or would trade for, Fuji long cast reverse double foot surf rod guides from size 8-20, if someone has some floating around.
  4. The next time this happens, you should be able to call him and have him come right there. Then he can tell her to go take a long freaking walk lol.
  5. Do you happen to have any heavier pd test, In the closet by any chance? Thanks EA
  6. Feel for your brother, it’s not just on the West Coast either, those weirdos just happen to be all over the East Coast too…!!! Seems there’s always, an entitled Karen and Ken, near every body of water these days! Got nothing better to do, then to mess with us, because we’re enjoying ourselves. and And they just can’t stand it, because they know their lives, just suck lol! Sometimes, you just gotta tell them To just go F off, and mind their own business lol. I would’ve been videoing her, taking a picture of my vehicle lol! So many good videos on YouTube of fisherman showing these friggin idiots up.
  7. Sorry for the delay in responding Jim. The wind is just wreaking havoc here, power was out for most of night too. And left a mess. Appreciate the offer, give me a little time to think about it. Need another Abu 6500 l/w reel, like I need another hole, in my head lol. EA
  8. Well, I’m not a professional builder, and you’re definitely not a photographer lol. But I knew a picture would help you out. Hard to tell what kind of material that is? But honestly, splintering is never good in my opinion. Hopefully somebody else will chime in with more experience.
  9. What happened to the original pics? Missed this one dang it.
  10. The first generation Captiva 2000, had 11 bearings. While the second generation had 8 ball bearings. Problem solved lol.
  11. Absolutely, positively, without a doubt! I just happen to be lucky enough, to live about 30 minutes from them, here in New Jersey. And if you happen to call and order, lotta times they’ll tell you that you need some extra part, that you forgot about and will save your butt lol. Before the lockdown, used to be able to walk right in there, and get whatever parts I wanted, now that was the bomb lol! They have since moved, but are on the same street, great guys to deal with.
  12. Is this a regular Penn Captiva or a Captiva 2 ? Seems they have since come up with a replacement part, for the bail spring on the first generation. Someone took a bigger spring and customized it, so the bail will actually feel crisper. Says it’s twice the size of the original coil. So hopefully, that would translate into a thicker gauge wire for the spring. Mystic reel repair also has it in stock. That’s if it is indeed, the bail spring that shot. Part number is 32N-2000CV. It’s $3.45 lol.
  13. That’s nothing lol! Some of these guys will pay over $1000 for a LMB freshwater swimbait. Now that’s just crazy lol. I’ll stick with the old tried n true baits lol.
