  1. What happens if I continue fishing without the ring? what can happen??
  2. Recently the top guide of my casting rod's ring fell out of the guide, should I be concerned about my line (30# braid) rubbing up against it? Will it eventually break the line at all? Any homemade fixes? Thanks
  3. I was planning a fishing trip with my father tomorrow(July 24th), and I heard about moon phases affecting fishing..... They say tomorrow is a "Poor" day to fish. Should i be concerned about not catching anything?
  4. I am a very hefty braid user and was wondering when should I respool my braid? I've been using the same spool of braid for about 2-3 months now and have not had a problem yet, should I be concerned about anything? The braid I use is Power Pro 30lb braid.
  5. Thanks mike but do you think 10 lb fluoro is enough for jigs? and have u broken off any at all?
  6. I recently purchased some P-Line fluoroclear co-polymer 10 lb test line. I wanted to test it out on some jigs for largemouth bass, and have heard many bad reviews about it. Has anyone had a problem with this line before? I usually use braided line when fishing with jigs but kinda wanna try some fluorocarbon. Should I stick with braid?
  7. I'm not sure if it's worth it though, the reel only being 40$ and I fish quite often every week now that it is summer, would wd 40 work as a lubricant?
  8. do you know any household products that can be used as a lubricant? And I'm kind of worried about breaking the reel because I am not experienced with opening reels and reassembling >_< the problem only persists when pulling drag very slowly
  9. what do you recommend me doing to ensure I solve the issue?
  10. Should I be concerned about it at all?, will not resolving the situation cause issues in the future?
  11. Hello everyone, Recently I bought a new baitcaster (Kastking Royale Legend). Everything was working fine, no funny noises or anything. Then I dropped the reel into lake, and now it makes a weird squealing noise almost like plastic rubbing onto plastic. ONLY HAPPENS WHEN PULLING DRAG SLOWLY. I have included a video of this problem, and please note the problem was not apparent before dropping it into the lake. What should I do? -Jonah Untitled.mp4 (SORRY FOR WATERMARK)
  12. Thank you very much !
  13. Hey guys, Going on a fishing trip in Tennessee tomorrow, and I decided to spool my baitcaster with braid. Usually I use braid on my spinning reels, but this time I decided to use it on my baitcaster. Anyways I totally forgot to put backing on my baitcaster before spooling the braid. I spooled the braid almost filling the spool. Will there be a problem or am I ok? Thanks
  14. Hey! A weeks ago, I was messing with my baitcasters internal braking system, and I popped some caps out, then when I put the spool back on, and tried to reel and let line out it would be really bumpy I have a pic of the inside. Please tell me how 2 fix? XD I'm a noob
  15. Thanks for helping but ima just give up XD thank you everyone for trying tho
  16. Thanks for helping but ima just give up XD thank you everyone for trying tho
  17. took off all the line on my spool and its still bumpy
  18. it is a really old real XD bass pro ETX 1000 lpha and I was going to let my little cousin use it so I was trying to use glenns recommended settings for someone new, when I opened it I popped 3 brakes loose and 3 still intact. did not drop the spool, and if I did I'm on carpet ;-;
  19. no I didn't I changed my brake settings around and then it started happening, before I use to take the cap off without touching the brake and when I reassembled it, it was perfectly fine
  20. I think its the spool.... because when I pull line out its bumpy and the spool shakes from right to left when I reel or pull line out
