  1. Do you know a video that shows how to do a quick clean?
  2. Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone could explain to me how they clean their low profile baitcaster or post a legitimate video that explains everything. Thanks.
  3. 1. Do Revos come with oil? 2. DVC, how will you help me?
  4. Also what is the difference between reel oil and reel lube and how do you use each one?
  5. Do Revos come with oil?
  6. There is nothing else wrong with the video right? Also do Revos come with oil? Thanks for the advice, but I'm NOT going to be completely taking the reel apart and cleaning every last inch. I don't have the skill to do that.
  7. 1. So Gen 3 Revos do come with oil? 2. That video Diggy posted is legit?
  8. So what mono line do you recommend? Also, why is fluoro not good for beginner? (besides price)
  9. So if I do everything that video Diggy posted says after every 6-7 times I fish, I should be good?
  10. Revos come with oil? Nice! Also, I am from the Reading-Philadelphia area.
  11. So for a beginner, mono is a good option?
  12. I will mainly be fishing with crankbaits and some soft plastics, with the occasional spinnerbait. What is a good choice of line? Also, is fluoro or mono best for a beginner with a baitcaster?
  13. Well, during the summer and spring it's more like 3 or 4 times a week, but i tried to compensate for the winter and fall(: But on the serious side, is there a way to do a quick clean without taking the entire reel apart (Im ok with taking apart a few pieces) What oil (brand) is best for this?
  14. I've also heard good things about the Bass Pro Shops xps fluorocarbon. Is this line good?
  15. Which is better, mono or fluoro? Are Berkley lines any good?
  16. I live in Pennsylvania so the fishing season isn't too long. I just want to know if there are a few spots to put a bit of oil on and what kind of oil or lube to use.
  17. Im getting an Abu Garcia Revo s, and a Veritas that has 8-17 pound test limit. What is the best line in your opinion? (Bass fishing)
  18. Hello everyone, I was looking into getting an Abu Garcia Revo s, and I was wondering what kinds of *light* reel maintenance I should do on this reel. 1. What *light* reel maintenance should I do to keep reel in good working order? (Without completely disassembling reel) 2. What materials are needed? I am a noob to reel maintenance, so please keep it easy. Thank you!
  19. On the Abu website, it says the reel has "pitch" cent brakes. What is this?
  20. Also, what is a pitch brake, and how do you adjust cent brakes?
  21. P.S. It will most likely be paired up with either a Veritas or Vandetta (Gen 2)
  22. Hello everyone, I am getting a new reel soon for bass fishing, and I have narrowed my options down to the Abu Garcia Revo sx, and the Revo s. I like both of these reels, but what one is better in your opinion? I know the s has a centrifugal brake, and the sx has a magnetic brake. Also, the Revo s says it has a "pitch" cent brake. What is this? How do you adjust a cent brake and how do you adjust a pitch cent brake?
  23. Hey Arv, why exactly is a centrifugal better for a newbie?
  24. Don't worry, although I am relatively new to the great world of baitcasters, I have had one in the past with magnetic brakes, and I learned how to cast for the most part with that reel.
