atvaholic Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Was fishing and let my son borrow my rod with my Stradic Ci4. Long story short: It took a real good dunking, sand everywhere. Should I take it in? If so, anywhere near niagara? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttahhan Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Rinse it with clean water and be done with it. And don't forget to re-greese and oil parts after....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bare foot wader Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) take the spool off and give it a good rinse...wipe it down with a towel and make sure all the sand is out...wipe the inside of the spool out, good place for sand to get trapped...wipe the spool shaft down take a q-tip and make sure there is no sand around the bail and roller add a drop or 2 in the maintenance port and good to go it's not the water that'll hurt the reel...it's the sand Edited October 1, 2012 by bare foot wader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azebra Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 These guys got it right, I dunked a centerpin in a mud bath, was about a 12-15" hole it was down for about 10 min until I peeled all my line off to retrieve it, tap water q tip and machine oil it's working great.
