Thanks Dean , great advice and demonstration. I’ve just got a pair of new ones and will do this service on them 👍🏻
Even when you're not fishing , your videos are excellent. Just did both my mag 525s and now super quick, with mags full on. Did not attempt to open the bearing (they looked sealed to me) so just soaked them in lighter fuel. Previously my mags were 50 % off !! Will have to take it easy on those 1st casts next time out - thanks Dean.
I thought I knew how to turn a reel. This vid is a game changer for me. Thanks a lot Dean. 👌
Just cleaned the bearings on my 525 mag 4 just how you explain in the vid and wow what a difference, i usually put 1 drop in straight out the rocket fuel container and thought it was right untill you said about the shockleader .thanks so much for the upload best ive seen
Another great informative video Dean ....i always take bearings out with the real in a cat litter tray to help avoid "ping " loses on the carpet or garage floor ......keep up the great work ....tightlines from the channel islands ......
Cheers Dean. Very helpful advice and methods. Much is applicable across other reel models. Really great to hear your experience and expertise.
I find these points below also help.
Use a saucer or soup bowl to hold you screws/ washers to stop things rilling around
Do it all on a tea tray so you can lift it all up and move it. Especially useful if you've got kids or pets or a missus who loves ocd tidying up. Especially if the doorbell rings mid service you can move it all to somewhere safer.
Top notch video with great info as usual Dean👍
Thank you so much for this video Dean. Im gonna go and do mine now , life saver
Brilliant video,just done mine,running so much better,wouldn't of attempted it without watching this,brilliant 👍
Simply and easy to understand! Less is more (oil). Saw your vid on switching from spinng reels to casting.
I’m very experienced and have been using PENN reels for years for boat trolling and dropping.
I haven’t spent time with casting since my old Penn 920 gold, 30 years ago, but I’ve been looking at the new magnet casting, and think it’s time to try something different.
In North America we don’t have the blue mag4, so need to decide between the fathom or squall casting specials, with star drag.
I’ve got a couple of Penns with the strike lever, but I’m not a big fan of these.
Good job explaining a basic reel service.
What a great video. I dont use Fathoms but this will be usful for any reel. Thanks
Brilliantly done
Thanks for sharing much appreciated from Cape Town South Africa
Love the trick with the 100lb line and oil!! My casting reels are coming apart tonight 🤣🤣.
Nice! I own one of these model.
Very informative!👍
Nice one Dean bud!
Brilliant gess wen i done my reels i put way 2 much oil on the berrings. THANKS DEAN.👍💯
Great vid thanks, any details on how to replace the mag control with a flush one? Appreciated
Very informative video!
I've got 525 mag 2's, will I get them to a reasonable standard by doing this service?
Would love to get the fathoms but don't get out often enough to justify changing my mag 2's.
Getting through your videos slowly but surely, need to TRY and learn your casting style now, 😢😢
Keep up the fantastic content and cheers Dean.
Thanks for this tutorial! Does the roller pin need a light layer of oil or do you normally leave that alone?
Thank you for sharing this video a good informative video on how to get your reel running perfect. I have a Daiwa slosh 30 that's not running pretty fast, would it be this easy to do the bearings in the slosh as I've never tempted to do it, info much appreciated Dean 👍🎣🎣🎣
Yes mate all bearings the same 😊
@@deanbooker3314 OK Dean thanks I've seen a video of a guy servicing a slosh 30 and he totally stripped it down not just take the left hand end plate. I will have a look at taking the left hand end plate off and lovare the bearings and take them out thanks again keep the awesome videos coming 👍🎣🎣🎣
Great tutorial, this maybe a silly question but can run a reel without any oil in the bearings? I have inadvertently done this after changing the bearings on my mags to ABEC 7’s unless they come with some oil already in the bearing
Great video again dean. Learning loads from them. How often would you do this? Thanks
When ever the reel slows down as in more clicks off to cast
Another top video mate, fancy doing mine for me ? 😂😂
Did not know this ....ow many times do you clean the bearings
Great video been looking for a good and clear guide on how to do this as I've just brought a pair of casting specials that have been used twice (apparently) , not sure I want mine going quite as fast as this but it shows me how to do it , do the different types of bearings you can buy really make much of a difference when it comes to fishing or are they really just for tournament casting at max performance ?
Also does the handle/gearbox side of the reel need any sort of tuning or maintenance other than the normal once a pre-season check ?
Hi mate, handle side every couple years if at all I never had mine done, I'd suggest if you don't want fast reels just leave them as they come out the box they are fast enough
@@deanbooker3314 Good to know thanks mate , will keep it in mind for the future If i ever master casting with them and want that little be extra
Great video Dean, that's really informative, cheers 👍. It's interesting to hear that you cover all your fishing scenarios with just one or two clicks from maximum breaking, especially with you having the reels running so fast. I was wondering, does variation in different lead sizes being used alter the range of breaking needed or is it just wind conditions?
Not really mate, my lead speed leaving the tip is always the same but with weather it depends if I touch the mag or not in flight
@@deanbooker3314ah right I get ya, thanks for the reply it's much appreciated 👍
Hi Dean im new to multiplier casting i will be getting one of these next week. Would you recommend me doing this to my reel or am i running before I've learnt to walk. I will only be using simple casting techniques no pendulum.
Hi dean have you tried the 525 mag 4 and if so what are your thoughts as i have one but my original 525 mag runs twice as long as the mag 4 both being oiled like you described with the shockleader , i even swapped the bearing on each reel and results was the same original twice as long spin times . Just thought id ask your opinion if you dont mind
Great watch been wanting to know how to clean my bearings for a long time in mine there are some small washers next to the bearings is it best to leave them in or take them out .cheers
Put them back where they was mate 😊
Will do.cheers.
Hi Dean thanks for all these good watch vids.
Couple of things if I may ask,how often would you re oil your bearings based on say you fish twice a week.
Also after a session fishing which method do you clean your reels dow.
Again thanks again for these good watch vids keep them coming please.
Hi mate, I only ever clean bearings when the clicks start do get bigger from 2 clicks to 6 clicks if that makes sense, but normally once a year, and cleaning the reels I use a spray bottle I never swill under the tap
@@deanbooker3314 yeah know what you mean on both accounts.
Did a lot of casting myself in the early mid eighties .
But really enjoy my fishing more these days.
Keep them vids coming if you can really good info etc.
Panel pin method I have used a lot for yrs but don't use the foam and still works but everyone to there own.
Doggieeees we are getting more and more of them up here in north east of England.
Regards thanks john
I'm a simple man/fisherman. Dean uploads, I watch.
Dean, I do have a question. I recently bought two dawia super tuned. No matter what I do, mags on full even fiddling around with the end float they are very temperamental, as in I will get a nest every 3 or 4 casts. I'm by no means an amazing caster buy I have been using multis for 20 years. My turbos, mags or 525s never had these issues. Just my new super tuned and actually my new fathoms 2 (non casting specials) also do it but less so. Any ideas?
Hi mate, it could be down to something simple as line lay, or lead speed leaving the tip, magged reels don't just blow up there will be a reason
@@deanbooker3314 I know mate. I just have a mental blocks. Spending 900 on a pair of reels then sending them off to be looked at seems wrong to me. I'll get out again and take a look again
@@Gummets mega money that mate
Hi Dean great video as usual. I'm not sure if I'd be 100% comfortable doing a service so any idea what your mate charges, or can you send me his details if he's happy to do so please?...thanks Steve
You been tournament casting with the bearings and fishing line
One click off?
Do you mean one click (on the dial) down from max breaking?
Correct 😊
How often would you oil the bearings?
Soon as my reels start to slow down from one click off down to 3 4 clicks
Yer mother in law has seen the cup. All I can say is Malteasers😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Dean do you ever just leave the shields off the bearing?
I use to when tournament casting but you don't really want salt water or sand getting in them
I was thinking that leaving the shield off the inboard side of the bearing wouldn't cause a problem. Would make it easier to clean and reoil the bearings. Think I'll give it a try.
both my penn mag 2 have abec 9 hybrid bearings have to watch line lift standard penn bearings abec3 hybrid bearing come in abec 5 7 and 11 take old bearings to bearing company i use antifriction in bristol alot cheaper you can do what dean does or replace with hybrid bearings no oil
Hi Dean, have you had chance to speak your mate, Mr Brown about servicing my reel please? Thanks Steve
May be just me but what do you mean about one click ?
1 click with the brake control knob.
I just swap mine out for some dry ceramic bearings
Nice one Dean 👍
Now I know what I'm doing until the wind drops haha
I've always used 525s for general middle weight fishing, where would you say the fathoms weigh in against a 525, bigger smaller, about the same?
I'm not sure mate but info should be online I reckon
@@deanbooker3314 No problem, I'll have a look, I just thought you might of used both. Cheers buddy 👍
Do mine if you want mate 😜
you are master
Cracking vid mate 👌🏻 what line is that on those casting specials?
No idea mate, there my mates reels
