for fishing on the tx coast i knocked my shimano chronarch off my kayak into the dang bay. had "ceramic orange sealed boca's" BUT the dang outter race got some rust on the inside and some of inside of the orange seal got some rust on it . tried cleaning it out and soaking in pb blaster but it still feels gritty. how do the FULL ceramic bearings fair in saltwater?
when installing new spool bearings (I have the upgraded unsealed kind where you can see the ball bearings on one side) does it matter if the bearings go in face down or face up?
One of the reasons people say they cast "soooo" much further. The bearings they're replacing are dirty and they probably use hot sauce, and too much of it. Then they go to hybrids run dry and are blown away.
Tackle Advisors I used the Hot sauce it a thin oil as penn synthetic I like that it has a tiny application needle for that one little drop on standard bearings
Tackle Advisors haha I just got mine today thanks a lot Ima pair mine with a bionic blade I found on a fishing trip one day I'll post a video when I get around to it
Tackle Advisors I went with a field and stream medium extra fast tip 7' one piece tech spec black lol Cork handles and it's carbon fiber 😍 THANKS AGAIN!! I will have to update you after I take it out a couple times!
Hi, Could someone please tell me where I can purchase descent quality bearings for my Shimano spinning reels? The line roller bearings have become very noisy on some of them. The Bearing part # is 13269 for several models of Shimano reels that I own and I don't want to spend alot of money if it is not necessary. Please let me know. Thanks, Tony
For freshwater. Remove the shields and run them dry. Add oil only to quiet them or slow them down a bit. I prefer to run mine dry otherwise you really arent gaining anything over a standard stainless bearing. Though if they are really abec 7's not some bs china bearing that just says they're abec 7. oiling will make them tighter over time as the burnished in oil builds up.
Tackle Advisors thanks for the reply, it was meant as a two part and forgot to add the 2nd part. Would running open shield or shielded shorten life? Or not much difference
It all comes down to if they stay clean. Fw bass fishing. it takes a bit to get debris into the spool bearings. But just get in a routine of cleaning them out every 5-10 outings.
I’m high right now and really enjoyed this video
OMG my ears! The ASMR sounds of bearings! so Good!!!!

Good question... I haven't seen any evidence of there being a different..
I got Boca abex 7 can they be used dry over standard stainless bearings they seem to run better dry and cleaned in Zippo fluid

Hi where can I get that abec 9 bearing for my reel? Please help me
What bearings are the best
What would you recommend? full ceramic abec 5 vs hybrid hedgehog 1150AIR HD & 1030AIR HD
The Boca seems the best to me
I just received the KastKing that you sent!!
It looks awesome!! What pole would you recommend pairing it with?
Awesome!!! What are you going to be using it for? How much $$$ are you spending?

On the Boca Bearings, what is the bearing retainer made of?
Rubber
I'm still waiting for a roller bearing in these sizes
Strange that they don't size the roller to fit this size bearing... It'd be noisy as hell though... Ceramics suck in that regard
@@TackleAdvisors not so sure on the noise of rollers if properly greased & sealed
Hi, is your oil blend a secret?
Would running Bocas bearings dry decrease their life expectancy or is it same shield. Considering application would be for freshwater only

+eatsleepswimbait I run mine shields off and haven't had an issue
Tackle Advisors thank you very much appreciated. Your vids are very helpful and informative.
That was awesome. Thanks
It's a result of paint chips :)
Thanks for this vid 👍
Great info

Fascinating, thank you. I am now super interested in the test. For gear it's your channel, for how to its Matt n Tim and big bass it's Mikeyballz
