Bassmaster,Fishing Facts, Bill Dance,Jimmy Houston,Hank Parker,Virgil Ward,Jerry McKInnis. ……spending time outside,on the water. just going and paying attention to what's going on was the best teacher. But the one person I owe all that to is my father. He was not a fisherman but he just knew I would take to it.God was he right. thanks Pop !!!!!!!!!!

baitcast reel with full ceramic bearings installed
tried it on an ambassadeur pro max 1600 couple years ago.all 8 bearings went to, ceramic,very expensive,again this was an experiment. and as rippin-lips said it's not worth it. if you need to change bearings get the best you can,abec 5 or 7 will be just fine. if you need to know the size you will need a micrometer.
