Lews Reel With No Manual or Oil

Featured Replies

Lews LFS Speed Spool on Amazon for $99 and it came with no oil or manual. Normal or should I get a return?

Should come with a manual. I don't believe oil is included ... at least in that model.

If it doesn't have a manual and I'm guessing it's returned, the reel works just fine. The reel makes a clicking noise when I reel in freely but that could be fixed with some oil I hope...

Return it. Buy it from a reputable place.

I own a few of those reels and they make no clicking noises.

I read the original post and was about type "fish it" but if it's clicking, I would return it.  I don't think oiling is going to get rid of clicking.  It was probably bad from the get go.

I haven't bought a Speed Spool in a couple 2-3 years but I'm almost certain oil comes with (at least last I bought one) and definitely a manual.

It's hard to explain, it's like when reeling in a lot of slack on light lures, when I spin it so the reel spins continuously, then it sometimes clicks. Not when I'm just reeling in.
