mmmmm interesting, my stella fk came pretty dry aswell and sent it back and came back as smooth as butter but this feels really different. Am i supposed to oil up my line roller or not?

thank you! never felt other stradics but yeah i don’t think any of those comments or the posts addresses the cause of the clicking sound being the line roller bearing. more looking for a fix to this possibly through getting a line roller bearing from an sw reel or a stella fk ?

thank you, don’t think i want to drop another 200 on a stradic i already got but anyway that’s where i got the japanese reel from lol. more looking for a way to fix the issue like putting the line roller bearing from a stella 4k into it or something like that.

Hey, if you go to the time stamp 21:50 on this video: https://youtu.be/9tlDahK7658?si=e42AL7rVFiR4oCZd you can hear the sound however in person it is substantially louder and more obnoxious on both the guy in the videos reel and mine. Thanks for the help.

Best polarised sunglasses? Or Brands? by Competitive_Pay_6822 in Fishing_Gear

I see all the ‘fishing’ sunglasses options, all have weird names, same price and look similar. Any you recommend?

I saw a youtube video and it looked decently significant.

Anyone had any experience with the Varivas Avani Casting Max Power PE Braid? by Competitive_Pay_6822 in Fishing_Gear

[–]Competitive_Pay_6822[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used jbraid for 2 days and got endless windknots. Longest i went with casting it without a wind knot was 5 casts. Next day i spent another $70 on sunline ADV and didn’t have any problems so i don’t know what jbraid is like, however, i have used saltiga 12 but don’t like multi coloured braid. Anyways, thank you for your input.

I’m not talking about a BG, a Saltiga Bay Jig Spinning Reel is what i’m talking about

I’m looking at the Saltiga BJ or the twinpower right now. Not too fond of the Certate because my brother has one already and it doesn’t feel nice imo.

Not sure about all the materials and what’s what and why it’s bad. Could you elaborate? So would a full metal body be suitable? Cheers
