I noticed today that when casting a zara Spook or big rattletrap that the the centrifugal brakes would snap open when I loaded up a big cast while laying off a stump row.
I usually only set two opposing brakes on and 2 off. After a few casts my distance would fall off and when I checked the centrifugal brakes, one or both of the brakes that were "off" would have snapped into the on position. This happen on 2 reels and maybe a 3rd. These reels are not old, they only been used one season.
Has anybody else run into this?
