Thank you Alan for the info, my reels are much older then 6m old, so next time i'l make sure to ask if my reels have drag washer glued on
Ain't I the
lucky one to be in LA/CA
since i'm
Mechanically Inclined + we fish 1 to 3 times a week mostly + i'm not the only one using my reel's + the most i do is clean our reel's and rods by washing them w/ some fresh water after fishing... i was told by some good friends to have our reel's serviced after, so every 40 days all i need to do is drive dawn to Avet

take my reel's to them, have them serviced, have a nice chit chat w/ the Brothers, play w/ the new SX /mc or JX/mc reels, learn a think or 2 and only then drive back TO WORK

this is what i have done today... so i'm good for another 40 days
PS. was told not to use my garden holes w/ pressure to wash the reels, since the
water pressure will push the salt or any other dirt in to the reel
PPSS. i wish Avet was sponsoring or at list advertising in this forum, atlist kids at home would not get scared @ 2am wan i'm searching the forum wan bernozOmatic Fat Boy add starts, tray telling your wife @ 3 am
