What paint and primer do you guys use overthere to paint your baitcasters ??,

I didn't purchase the wrong brand at all, I wanted this particular reel for throwing 1/8, 1/6oz jigs, I was only wondering if it was possible, its no big deal I will just go out and but a new setup for light stuff, I guess its easier then changing the spool all the time anyway., BTW I am using a 2-4...

Okay so it has all to do with the spool, I have upgraded to OC's and use a pretty good rod already.

Daiwa Megaforce THS, that thing was a piece of junk, but for some reason I was sad to see it go.... WEIRD.

What do I need to upgrade on my reel to make it throw lighter weights, I have a Lews BC and it throws 1/6oz 1/8oz Curltails and paddletailz fine but throwing lighter weights is a huge problem, what part of the baitcaster do I need to upgrade to make it throw lighter weights, ie the spool, the bearin...

YO ZURI HYBRID, its dirt cheap here in AUS

Agreed even though lews don't sell in my country (Australia), I emailed Rick about some replacement spool/tension bearings (sizes) he sent me an email right back and a week later I received 3 new bearings free of charge (I didn't even ask), for them to send to Australia for free is awesome, since th...

Thankyou that does help, there is no way I would of payed retail to replace the inner real bearings if I wasn't getting such a good deal, I really am interested in the bearings inside the pipe (The thing that the wormshaft fits into), there are 2 of these one either side and also the handle bearings...

Not really, I can get 11 ABEC 7's wholesale delivered under $40, I just need the sizes, I will just buy some calipers, I am swapping them all because my handle bearings are rusted ( I already did the spool, tension and side plate), and $40 isn't a lot to spend for piece of mind, I am doing a drag up...

So I want to fully load up my Lews with 11 Abec 7 but am unsure of the sizes, can you just measure them with a tape, ie would just trace around them with a pen then measure the distance (width) or will that not work.

The Sniper FC I feel is very unforgiving I use to use it regularly (because everyone told me it was the best) but since then I have changed, the FC is good on slack bites but since I fish flathead I don't really need it anymore, line conditioner will help especially over time but I steer clear of th...

It makes a whole bunch of difference on free spool and I guess it makes more of a difference if your bearings on your TP are old/ gummed up, I replaced mine within 4 weeks and it made pretty much no difference, only difference it made was casting super light and even then it was negligible, but cast...

I had this exact problem, when I would see the bass follow the bait I would subconsciously slow down the retrieve rate on anticipation of the strike, they would see the bait and piss off, sometimes I wait till I see the fish follow then I speed up the retrieve a little bit, they seem to want to chas...

I would be using plastic primer if I was you, the paint will flake off plastic if you don't use plastic primer

FINALLY, I got to the lake and fished with the NEW Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon XL Pro. :D It's a great line! I used it in 8LB (0.10 diameter) test line on both my Stradic 3000 FJ and Chronarch 200E7. Compared to Trilene Monofilament XL, regular Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon Pro, and Sunline "Super Natura...
