Drag Question
My reel handle on a Citica spins freely when I tighten the drag. As I start to loosen it, it seems to bind slightly. Doesn't spin as freely. What do you suppose is going on? I need to add, I just put Carbontex drag washers in four Citicas. This is the only one doing that. One more question. Any tips for getting the gear set off the shaft? Those things were really tight.

Any value in vintage rods?
This! I have about a dozen or so old rods. Some solid glass, some steel rods and some tubular glass. Used to decorate my man cave. If I put them all up for sale, probably wouldn't get enough money to buy a lightning rod. Hootie

We have a catfish house restaurant that has a tackle section. What else was I supposed to do while I waited for my food.
I'm thinking you went to that restaurant,.."subconsciously" because they have a tackle store on site....lol. Hootie
