      Thanks for the sub! Let me know if there is a particular reel service you want to see. I am getting to the point where I make enough each month to but a reel and service it. I am trying to decide if I should buy a vintage reel to fix up and then sell.

    Cool reel! I don't recall these but that could have been a regional marketing thing? Only HAWGS I met were the 733 direct drives. Zero drag, 20lb. line. Reel in and eat! I think I can rebuild one from two but I might have to hit ebay or craigslist to round out the project. Most memorable reel prior to my Abu 6000 that changed everything. Yes I do currently run some (somewhat current) Zebcos and (nearly antique) Quantums in spinning, casting, and of course spincast but I really need to play in my old toybox... Old friends await...Yep.
    I dig the inspiration so much! Get out and catch some, reel service is fun but get out and get it done! Thanks man.

    • @OutFishing13Matthew

      Yes, absolutely With good 20 pound test and using 40 pound leader you could definitely win the battle. Set your drag at about 10 pounds of pull and let the battle begin. Don't let him take too much line and hang on.

    @brianeidmann5941 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just curious, do you think sealed bearings would be a good upgrade if using for saltwater? Is it safe to say to buy an 808 and supertune it as it has a better anti reverse system than buying an 888. Also, grab the 888 brass pinion gear if it's interchangeable? Maybe upgrade the plastic drag washers with carbontex? Lastly, what is the difference between the BigCat XT and the 808? I think its just an 808 with bearings?

    • @OutFishing13Matthew
      @OutFishing13Matthew  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I dont think the sealed bearings will be any better. Good quality stainless is all you need. Imo. You might be able to get the brass pinion. It should fit if it is the same frame/model. Upgraded drag washers would make it tougher. Not sure it is needed. I dont know the difference between the big cat and the regular 808. It could be bearings.
