Clicking drag

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Clicking drag

Hello,

Where can I find discs for making drag clicking to a baitcasting reel when a fish is taking line? :roll:

The only reels I have are Abu round reels that click when line is being pulled out. It has nothing to do with the drag. There is a ratchet on the end of the spool that will click when engaged. I do not believe this is something you can just add.

A clicker that is audible when a fish is taking line can be made for nearly any reel by Oleg Semchenko- Great guy that I have ordered many kits from. Easy to install and cost is about $30.

Thanks! Good to know. The only reason I haven't already ordered a set is because he wants me to take my reel apart to take measurements to make sure I get the right set and I haven't had a chance yet.

He has an Ambassadeur 5000 set and an Ambassadeur Rocket set, so I don't know which one would fit my Pro Rocket 5501cs.
This is the way.
