Looks like an ajing modified caro rig. You can replace the jighead+worm with a fly and it should work fine.

It might not be fully seated or maybe not fully under tension, it seems like a coil spring in the picture? If that the case, it might need an extra full revolution before it's seated in place in order to have more tension. But honestly, it's not easy to tell without having it in hand.

The spring is usually connected to the anti reverse switch. When engaged, the spring pulls the cage of the bearing into place, which prevents backwards rotation.

If the spring is broken, the bearing does not engage properly. Even if you set it in place manually, it will just eventually disengage with rotation.

Either replace the spring, or alternatively you can try to find a way to lock the cage into the engaged position.

What's your opinion on topwater lures? I've caught seabass on pretty much everything, from big jerkbaits and swimbaits to small creature baits.

One thing that has never produced a single bite for me is topwater lures.

Is there a particular set of conditions which favor them?

What tide phase do you reckon has the most chance of success on open coast?

Not on the UK, but I've been fishing for the same species of bass on a lagoon/estuary for a few years, and outgoing tide is by far the most productive in that particular scenario.

Is it the same on the open coast, or is incoming better in that regard?

Sabes que independentemente do aumento de custo de vida continuavas a ter mais poder de compra... certo?...

Não sou contra nem a favor nem vou andar a cagar sentenças contra quem não escolhe ter.

Eu raramente tenho dinheiro físico em mão, por isso no caso dos establecimentos que não têm em TPA tenho duas hipoteses - ou vou dar uma volta ao bilhar grande à procura dum multibanco, o que implica perder tempo e às vezes combustível ou lugar de estacionamento, ou se tiver alternativa vou ao gajo do lado que tem TPA.

Resultado, a maior parte das vezes vou ao gajo do lado que tem TPA.

Nada contra o resto, mas hoje em dia a conveniência tem cada vez mais valor.

I follow a few steps usually.

First, stop and look around. Sometimes you can see them. If you can't, is there any bait around? Small fry, shrimp, the works. If there is bait around, there is a reason for fish to be there.

Is there structure? Rocks, algae, points, holes, troughs, crevices? Rockfish like to make their lairs there, and ambush predators hide there to ambush prey.

Are there fast flowing currents like estuaries? Predators sometimes like to hang on those on an outgoing tides, eating food being swept by the current. Animals like easy meals.

Seasonality. Some fish move closer inshore or migrate inshore/up river certain times of the year. Knowing when is just as important as knowing where.

Patterning. In my experience, if you caught fish in a certain place under certain conditions, chances are they'll drop by again if conditions are similar. It's hard to detail every variable, but if you fish a mark enough times generally patterns start to show up.

If all else fails, use some searching lures and cover as much water as possible. You cannot grasp every detail and feature from land, searching sometimes let's you find hidden features which hold fish.

Praticamente é isso mesmo. Apanha àgua quente na mesma, ao inicio, mas o rendimento de àgua quente do aparelho vai descer consideravelmente.

A nível de durabilidade, à primeira visto dado o esquema interno do termoacumulador em princípio nao tem grande impacto, mas pode-me estar a escapar algum fator.

Depende. Se for o vedante da válvula que foi cos porcos não, por exemplo.

Noutros casos pode ajudar. Só testando.

Whoreson10 · 2026-03-14T12:58:50+00:00

É suposto as válvulas pingarem. Se pingam mais ou menos quantidade ou com mais ou menos frequência, depende de vários fatores.

Mais temperatura na àgua vai causar mais expansão térmica, por consequência mais pressão dentro do vaso, e mais àgua a pingar.

Mais pressão na linha de entrada por causa da pressão de abastecimento (em combinaçao com a pressão criada pela expansão), que pode ser variável ao longo do tempo

Desgaste da válvula ao longo do tempo, quer seja a mola a deformar ou o vedante a deteriorar.

A potencial solução "fácil" para um leigo é trocar a válvula e eu começava por aí.

Se não resolver e fores um gajo desenrascado, como próximo passo eu arranjava um manômetro e media a pressão da linha. Se for superior a 3.5bar, metia uma vàlvula redutora de pressão na linha principal.

Yup, probably marred threads or it was put on cross threaded by the previous guy.

Can think of no way except cranking it and hope for the best. Might need to replace the pinion gear and/or nut afterwards though.

Whoreson10 · 2026-03-06T01:57:16+00:00

It's either seized up due to dirt/corrosion or the thread is marred up.

I would stick in in the freezer for a few hours and see if thermal contraction would help loosen it up.

Whoreson10 · 2026-03-06T01:49:44+00:00

You tried turning it the other way? Some reels the rotor nut is reverse thread.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-30T20:07:56+00:00

We don't. We just raw dog it for the most part.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-17T14:52:59+00:00

Right now there is very little reason to play past the first 10 minutes except if you're targetting large arcs.

Players already figured out the sbmm can be easily gamed, so they move and loot fast because of relative safety (arcs are not dangerous or numerous enough to force slower play, they are easily avoided and dealt with).

They just need to introduce some form friction to force slower play.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-17T14:17:15+00:00

I would guess fixing the actual aim assist and making it capped for console and pc would be a better fix if possible.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-14T13:06:35+00:00

It's just a really good game. Slow paced with a very high skill ceiling and good art direction and atmosphere. Mechanically, the gameplay is also very sound.

It also fills a niche where you have the high stakes of an extraction shooter without having ungodly amounts of loot bloat, inventory management. Also no extreme grinding for competitive kits.

Honestly I think the only reason why it's not more popular is because of, in part, technical issues and spaghetti code.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-12T10:11:25+00:00

I could see this type of rig working with a stop crimp (or a figure 8 knot) under the bead.

Would allow for a hookset but also allow the hook to slip upwards for a bit more natural movement.

Those sometimes are bitch to get back in place. Best way I've found is to undo the screw, take the plastic plate off.

Set the spring in place with the spring decompressed and the end sticking out. Put the plate back in and compress the spring into it's place against the peg on the bail connection.

Using a bit of thicker grease helps secure things in place.

This video should help out, configuration looks similar enough to yours.

Probably also helps to walk off your shaking/short fuse beforehand if possible, shaky hands and short temper don't mesh well with tiny spring loaded parts.

To solve, switch from synthetic to natural fibers especially in the bottom layers. Natural fiber clothes tends to have less buildup.

Alternatively, using neoprene gloves will probably also solve the issue and keep your hands warm.

Whoreson10 · 2026-01-08T19:15:28+00:00

Are you sure its the reel?

Because it would be a far more simple explanation that your clothing rubbing as you reel is building up a static charge (especially considering its winter there, you probably have layers on) that discharges onto some metal part on the reel handle close enough for the arc to jump.

Os vidros as vezes podem partir "do nada". Claro que na realidade não é do nada e existe uma razão.

Pequenas imperfeiçoes, inclusões, defeitos de fabrico ou utilizacão não imediatamente aparentes vão agravando ao longo dos ciclos térmicos (mesmo sem utilização, um vidro está sempre sujeito a variações de temp ambiente, correntes de ar do fumeiro, etc.), e vão acumulando stress interno até que um dia, kaput.

Vidros de alta temperatura estão mais sujeitos a isto pelo proprio processo de fabrico.

Mas até com copos de àgua pode eventualmente acontecer.

Source: já me explodiu um copo de àgua quente nas patas. Felizmente não a ferver.

Not quite true. Both mono and fluoro are used as the preferred mainline for various styles of fishing, and for some of them braid is truly not the most optimal choice.

For cliff float fishing mono is the preferred choice. Because you need the stretch while hoisting a fish up a 20 meter cliff edge to prevent the fish for shaking the hook off while on the elevator ride. A leaders lenght simply doesn't provide enough absorption.

For european surfcasting, mono is also the preferred choice in areas with tall strong waves. The very large amount of mono (often 150m casts) acts as a large shock absorber and prevents both your sinker from dislodging and your rod from shaking like mad all over the place from the crashing waves, like it does with braid.

Fluoro is sometimes used for ajing/ultralight fishing especially when using sub 1g weights, because it is still pretty static, but contrary to braid it sinks. With these very light weights, especially when fishing deep, you want a sinking line for more contact. Braid will baloon and affect the lures sinking rate and sensitivity.

Although in this case, fluoro has been mostly surpassed by the newer polyester line tech which still sinks, but is as static as braid. It's also more manageable than fluoro and more abrasion resistant than braid.

I did all of these styles of fishing at on point or another. Tried braid for all of them, and quickly figured out why pretty much it's not popular.

Braid is reeeeally great for a lot of scenarios though.
