What reel??? Try some oil on the shims and spool support bearings, and no I wouldn't use anything that DA sprays or puts on his reels... Why 50 lb line, you planning on catching 50lb bass?? Tight Lines!!!

Ok received the blank late (typical FEDX) yesterday. We took posession of a new gen IM MB705- 10-17 1/4-3/4 7' FAST MH, the blank color is matte charcoal gray. The unfinished blank weight is a whopping 2oz. Took a quick look at the blank and found it to be straight as an arrow (the first runs were hand picked/inspected before packing them for shipment to distributors and given gold decals). Shook the blank and bent it and it does feel like a medium heavy, the taper looks just like my mag heavy Shikäri® SHX rod. I don't do CCS testing... For a second gen IM rated blank the blanks are as thin walled as the Saint Croix® LT-B and Shikäri® SHX blanks I have built on. That's all for now.. Tight Wraps!!!

Because it isn't a faulty reel being sold, go straight to the factory... Look at the support page on the web site... http://www.fishmitchell.com/support Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

They may be Custom designed (to their specs) for Biffel, VanDam, Swindle, etc. But they are not custom to your specs, which makes them still $200.00 Quantum production rods.... Just a custom builders .02¢... Tight Lines!!!

Only one possible problem. The silt and dirt particles that are in the water will stick to any part that is greased (fresh water rinse will not remove that). That is why a rinse is good, but a complete break down is better. Just my .02¢.. Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

Just checked my tracking #'s and it is on the truck for delivery today. Going to do a lot of waggling today... Have the Laguna Burl all set aside for the grips, still have to make up my mind on the guides.. Tight Wraps!!

Yea but that only insures the tapers to be very good tapers... I believe he (GL) is using the SHX and SHII mandrels. I have built on both of those blanks/tapers (1- 7' SHX and 2- 6'6" SHII), they were awesome blanks, but that was from Shikäri® graphite rolls.. We will see how NFC uses the mandrels.... Tight Wraps!!!

Taking the plunge ordering the... NFC MB705- 10-17 1/4-3/4 7' FAST MH today. Well see what the blank feels and looks like this week.. Did find out that these blanks are off of the Shikäri® SHX mandrels that were part of the sale when the Loomis bros bought the company... Tight Wraps All!!!

Quantum's Accurist PT Comes in 6.3:1 and Burner 7.0:1... Right- and Left-hand models available. Flippin' Switch on all standard and burner Accurist series reels. Balance matched to Gary Klein's Signature Series Tour rods.. Tight Lines!!!

We only carry stock level wind assemblies, we have upgrade spool support bearings and drag pads. But for anything else to trick out your reels oldschoolbasser, or the factory is your best bet.. Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

Yup was talking with her about these (IM) series: MB705- 10-17 1/4-3/4 7' FAST MH....MSRP $183.00 MB709- 12-20 1/4-1 7' FAST MAG-H...MSRP $212.00 She told me she should get the shipment by thursday..

Because both of those reels are only sold through BPS.. I would suggest that you contact OutDoor World Rod & Reel Repair... http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CFPage?storeId=10151&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&appID=40&option=2 They are basically the BPS service center and service both of those reels... Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

Wow!! Talked with Karen @ Bingham's yesterday the MSRP's on those blanks are something. I can see minimum 300.00 rod price points using the NFC blanks almost before you have guides/seats and cork factored in... The blank I was looking at is 212.00 msrp my second choice was 183.00. Might have to sit back and wait to see if the blanks are worth the price points.... Good luck & Tight Wraps!!!

Nope it is usually in the case of the ticking an adjustment.... In the case of the line carriage it is usually a small part that has worn out.. I could better tell you if you could disclose the models of the reels......... :-? Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

What reel is it? Yes do a fresh water bath only if the reel has been exposed to a salty environment... Spinning reels aren't as easy as baitcasting reels, so I would recommend a complete break down at least once a season (with regular use), use the links supplied...... Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!

First off make sure you have the right schematic for the reel, next make sure you have the correct part number (G84-7801). The two best places in the US to order parts are from the factory direct J Francho posted the address for that, then there is.... Mikes will cost an arm and a leg, as they are located in Canada.... Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!
