I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
He says to adjust the tention knob... DONT TOUCH IT. it says directly in the paperwork when you get a DC to NOT move it or otherwise it will not preform at it's best.
I just got mine. and the big yellow paper in the box says to loosen the knob until no side to side rattle. any more than that can hinder the DC brakes. but they should be set from the factory from what I've heard so don't touch it if you don't have to.
I assume you leave the brake at factory setting as these reels are not made to change brake settings. Only time you adjust brake is if the spool is shifting left or right and has gotten off the factory setting. Having said that, what settings beween 1 and 4 on the left side of the reel do you use for both pitching and flipping?
I'm about to buy that reel but the guy in the shop told me this reel was not for Chanel catfish .. 🤷🏻♂️.. he's said catfish was strong fight so he not recommend me .. is that right.. this reel can not handle catfish Sir.. like 5-7 pounds catfish..???
