I have a silver Diawa 2600C that I purchased in 1978 and with regular maintenance, I clean and regrease every two years, I have never had any problems with it. I paired my 2600C with an Eagle Claw 8' 6" Medium rod for fishing Lake Michigan and now use it for rivers and flood control reservoirs.
Very nice! The key, as you noted is to service these reels regularly. The 2600 and other silver series reels are tops - Dennis
I just bought a 2600c
I had one when I was a kid. 1977ish
It was an awesome reel back then
I used it to catch chinook rainbow Lakers pike walleye bass perch and even caught a stergeon
I hope to do the same this year 2022
Best wishes for great fishing with the reel! Dennis
Followed your excellent video to service my 2600c. Thank you for posting.
Nice that steve just didn’t trash that reel.
Too many find their way to the trash either because folks don't know where to get them fixed or the cost to repair them if they can find someone. That is one of the reasons why I am doing these videos. If I can show people how to service them and eliminate the cost factor, then more of these reels will go fishing again. Thanks for watching - Dennis
Love this channel
Thank you. I appreciate the encouraging words - Dennis
I repaired my wife's 2500C using this video. Drag washers and bearings, re-greased it, LIKE NEW!!! Thanks to Second Hand Tackle!!! Nice video.
Thanks for watching. Please stay tuned for more to come - Dennis
What grease did you use ? I am q newbie in this
Excellent job. Should i be using diferrent grease for the gears and drag assembly ? Thanks
You can use the same reel grease on drag washers. There is a speciality drag grease product - Cal's universal drag grease, that I use. but you can get by with the regular grease and you do not need to buy it for a single use. Thanks for asking - Dennis
I bought one of these at a flea market. The bail doesn't stay in the closed position after being tripped. What should I be looking for there?
Sounds like a bad bail spring - I would check to make sure it is not broken before I did anything else.
Dennis
I have a 2600c the drag is not working.should I keep or trash it.lick it.not if it cost more for parts than what. It worth.let me know on your take on it.
Definitely keep it. Follow the drag service at the end of the video. Washers are cheap and you probably just need to clean and lube them. - Dennis
Hi Dennis how do remove the Excess Grease and what solution would you recommend.
Use a small flat bade screw driver to scrape off the hard stuff and then penetrating ol to loosen up the rest before mopping up with a cotton swab or paper towel. Thanks for asking
Dennis
@@2ndChanceTackle thankyou Dennis
Hi Dennis. Great video as usual. I was working on my friend's 2600c and everything went great. The only part I am having issues with is key # 41- anti reverse claw spring. I do not know the proper orientation of this part. I believe it sits under the anti reverse claw, but can't get it to sit properly? Do you happen to have a picture of the orientation of this part?
Give me a day or so and I will see if I have one then take a picture for you or do a video on how to reset it - Dennis
Thank you sir!
I am posting the video now. You should see it shortly. Good luck on the repair - Dennis
2nd Chance Tackle That did the trick!! Thank you very much!
Hi Dennis,. Are the bushings in the sideplate made of metal or plastic?
These bushings are plastic. Daiwa has many models. Some have the Plastic, some have the metal and the higher end has bearings - Thanks for asking - Dennis
Is there a particular grease I need to use
Any fishing reel grease will suffice. I use Penn Precision reel grease because I work on a lot of Penn Reels, but the manufacturer is less important than making sure the grease is designed for fishing reel application - Thanks for asking - Dennis
@@2ndChanceTackle your the man Dennis appreciate your response saved me from putting on car grease
Do you know if the drag knob from a 1300c fits a 2600c ? My 2600c knob broke
I don’t know for sure. My guess is yes but I don’t have the reels to verify. Thanks for asking. Dennis
Your hand is in the way so it is hard to see what your doing
I apologize for the arm and hand. I am a low tech one man show with a fixed camera. I have become more aware of the issues and try to show more detail and close views, but I still get in the way from time to time. It's a learning process for me. Thanks for the feedback. I have been remaking some earlier project videos where the interference is more noticeable. I will add this to my list of requests and try better the next time I get one of these reels - Best wishes - Dennis
Dennis, I have a Daiwa 2500C that I have restored to all it’s original glory. What is the difference between a 2600C and a 2500C? I have a 7000C, 4000C, 2500C, and two 1300Cs in the Silver Series. I got a kick out of the 1300C reels. They are so beautiful and amazingly strong. I’m looking for a GS9 or a 9000C for the future. I have reels in four of the 1970s Silver Series reels - Daiwa, Penn, Olympic, and as of today - Ryobi. You were still using the screwdriver for grease in this video. I like that as I still do. Steve has a beautiful 2600C. It looks a little larger than my 2500C. You did a great job of this one! I love these reels. --Chris
I think the difference is spool capacity. I believe the internal gearing is the same - Dennis
Thank you for the videos! I first found your video on the Penn spinning reels and then found this one. I have two Daiwa 2600C reels that my dad bought when I was a kid back in the 70's. I think it's time to "unretire" them, service them and put them back in service. Thank you so much for posting!
I think it is time to unretire then as well. The Daiwa silver series reels are one of my favorites and yours should be back to being a kid again with a little cleaning, grease and oil. Best wishes - Dennis
Thank's Dennis, i now service my reels after watching your exellent tutorials. All but one of my reels are secondhand.
A great way to save money and get a bargain
And a fun hobby that will make you proud too! Thanks for watching - Dennis
just dug out one from a box and tore her apart and serviced her not bad it had grease that was 20 years old in it so its not perfect but back together working with no extra parts....I am going to start taking pics.... I had to come in from my shop and look at a schematic to see how some parts went back... it had the old daiwa black gold design with the bushings and one ball bearing instead of 3 ball bearings....Your right hearing the reel clicker brings back my teen years.....
And that clicker let's others nearby know that there is a fish on! Tight lines - Dennis
what is different between 2600c and daiwa ss-1000z? and what price now a days, i want to buy..
They are similar, but the materials in the SS series and the case are superior to the 2600C. Since you are fishing a lighter size reel, there is less difference than with the bigger ones. Both are excellent reels - Dennis
What size bearing is it for this specific model?
I'm sorry, but I don't know and I don't have that reel in the shop to measure it for you. Thanks for asking - check with Bocabearings.com as they probably know and carry what you need - Dennis
Hi Dennis, The Daiwa 2600C makes a clicks during retrieve. Can this be silenced ? Is it the plastic "hook" in the underside of the spool ? Can I snip that hook off ?
Sorry - that click is the nature of the beast. It is the anti-reverse dog tapping on the ratchet. The only way to silence that is to disable the anti-reverse. You should have the over-ride on the bottom of your reel. Move the switch and you will not hear it any more. The plastic tab under the spool only clicks when the drag is loose and the fish is pulling line out. It is an alarm to let you know the fish is on. - Dennis
Thank you Dennis. I am enjoying my Peen 104 and have had 3 tarpon on, but only for a run.
I have 2 3/4 of these... lots of questions on where to get parts....etc (and yes I rebuilt them am crammed as much grease in there as possible--now I know). Question is:why is the drag-knob self tightening? I take maybe two yards off these spools and the drag is on maximum??
That shouldn't be self tightening. Is this happening on all of your reels/spools or just one? It sounds to me like the drag stack is frozen or there is broken line trapped inside and wrapped around the axle or some other factor. You should remove and service the drag stack to make sure it is set up correctly. If you have more than one spool, swap it out and see if the problem remains. That will tell you if it is drag stack related or in the reel itself - Thanks for asking - Dennis
I noticed the play in the spool that you found. I have the same problem with a Ocean Star No. 36 that I have attempted to restore. I told you about it when we were trying to determine who manufactured it. (Daiwa) There was no cause for the spool like you found in this one. The Ocean Star has no bearings just bushings and I finally decided that it was probably caused by the age and previous use of the reel. - it’s age. The gears were in great shape though. If you have any ideas on how to get rid of this unwanted play in the spool please let me know. It doesn’t badly affect the operation of the reel but it does have some bothersome noise with the spool.
The Daiwa Silver series reels are awesome. As you know I recently acquired a mint 7000C that you helped me to remove the spool for service. They are incredibly durable and easy to use. I really like the fact that you can rotate the reel to snap back an open bail or choose to close it manually - a great feature not found on most modern reels of today. Thanks for another tremendous video.
- Christopher
I think it should be attributed to age and wear. Many bushing widen with use and many cases expand, which causes the slop. Nothing to do there but replace with new parts or live with it. Thanks Christopher - Dennis
I have the same reel. How do I get in touch with you to get it serviced?
Please send me an email note address is: 2ndchancetackle@gmail.com Thank you - Dennis
I have a 2600c what year was it made?
These reels were circa 1980's
What kind of Cleaner/Degreaser is on your table? When do you use it?
The degreaser is Purple Magic. I use this for cleaning the exteriors of reels, particularly the side plates on conventional reels and the side plates and spools on the spinning reels. I use a piece of a soft kitchen scrubby pad and the Purple Magic to remove grime, dried oil, fish scales and dirt. It does a great job. If you use this, I recommend that you wear latex gloves to keep the product and the stuff you are removing from the reel off of you hands. - Dennis
Purple Magic is available at auto parts stores, Wal-Mart and online. a 24 ounce bottle is around $9.
Thank you very much!! I love your channel
