No,it's a bait caster.Just some tape on the reel to hold the first half wrap .Giver:thumbsup_anim:

There's two pawls,should I get rid of the retrieve one only?,or both?. It would still click when you pull the line off,and drag.Thanks.

Thanks Bill but the drag never stops clicking,the sound only gets lesser when you back it right off.

The reel I have is old,and I put 100 yards of backing on and 84' of floating line. Plus 9' leader and 3' of tippet.After doing so The reel is a small arbor and the spool is only 3/4 full. Should I strip off the line and add more backing?,or is this ok to work with. It's the clicker style reel,not so loud bringing it in,but the drag varies and louder when more drag is applied. I know the reel is only to store line. When you pull the line out is fairly noisy. Any ideas would be appreciated.

There's a fellow that works out of Kontiki marina in Lefroy.Can't think of his name,but if you call the marina they should give you the details.

No,plus you need a regulator.

I also heard front wheel drive is not the best way to go if you want your vehicle to last.

I haven't had any issues either,other than a fishing staff member knowing way more than any one needs to about reels,lol.And others not knowing much. Your right that the fly fishing department is very helpful. They helped me with any questions I needed and than some. Bought my fly lines from them.

Good to hear!!!,all the best!

Love that area,spent a lot of time fishing,camping,cruising in that area. But you need to buy off the beaten trail as said. The traffic through the channels are wicked all day during the summer season.

I wouldn't worry much,it's probably the fogging oil just burning off.Mine does that for a bit every year.Nice boat!!!

How about , Hook"n" up, or The" Happy Hook'r" lol Sure is a nice boat!!!

Way to go Brian!!!,I just need to get to a park and practice. The water sure looks good!!

Hi Vince!!!

The live target green/black /yellow I have caught quite a few bass.To see them charge up from behind and grab it is about as good as it gets.!!!!! They also hit and miss a lot.

Mike,you saved him a whole lot of time and money.It's nice he appreciated it.

No fish there:whistling:LOL.Kontiki marina,or Bradford.

Smaller world than we think.

I was going to say,what about all the government grants?Just gone?,or penalty if true?

Hey Stoty,wonder why the gas Questions?,I'm sure if you couldn't afford to run it you would not of bought it.My 200hp motor costs me on average $40.00 bucks a day.That's the price of enjoying a great hobby or past time.Cheaper than a Saturday night at the Queens.lol.

That's one nice boat!!!!!!!

Great to hear it's working well!,you should now be good for a few more years !!!

Looks like you guys had a ball!!!,great vids.

A buddy of mine hooked in to a musky about 42" the other day on Simcoe.Great pics Steve,hope to get into a couple of Pike myself very shortly(my favorite),biting at the bit ,really need to get going.lol.

Isn't that the limit,good things happen to good people!!!!
