I haven't yet, but I'll be doing it soon.

You’re supposed to clean them? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just throw it in a bucket of used motor oil and let it sit for awhile then pull it out and wipe it off. Works great.

[@scottseith2134]

Great video as always. Have to take care of your equipment if you want it to last and preform at it’s best. My wife jokes that I clean my reels more than I fish 😂

[@TackleJunky81]

Thank you, Scott!

Do you have a deep clean video? I found a reel in the lake I want to restore

[@omarhill7345]

hey James, does the ardent spray have a strong smell to it? i've been using the penn spray and it smells like roach killing spray called raid.

[@TackleJunky81]

It has a smell to it, but I wouldn't say it's strong.

[@omarhill7345]

TackleJunky81 thanks.

[@jakebreese9900]

Do you happen to have a “Daiwa procaster special edition 100se” (its a weird green color)

[@biffbinford8767]

Don't they give those away at Wal-Mart if you buy a matching pole?

[@jakebreese9900]

I don’t think maybe

[@TackleJunky81]

I do not.

[@jakebreese9900]

TackleJunky81 If you ever see one buy it it’s really nice reel for the price

[@shawntitsworth4878]

I break mine down in the off season and clean them. Learned how by watching your old vids. What ya think about investing in an ultra sonic cleaner? I think it would make the job a lot easier and faster

[@TackleJunky81]

I have one, but haven't used it yet. It'll definitely do a better job I'm sure.

[@lucascottrell9715]

Does Lucas oil make reel oil or are u using automotive? I know they make great products. I just never thought to use it on my reels.

[@TackleJunky81]

They make reel oil. Pick it up at Tackle Warehouse.

[@coreypowell7194]

Keep your grass short it's easy to see snakes in it that way 😆

[@tacobob891]

How do you like the Sx?

[@TackleJunky81]

LOVE IT! 👊💪

[@tacobob891]

Ok, I'm gonna put you on the spot here. My follow up is Curado K or Sx for the money? I own several Ks but am an Okuma fan as well. Had great luck with several of their spinners but never tried their baitcasters.

[@TackleJunky81]

@@tacobob891 It would be hard to say as I've never used the K. The SX is solid bro. Small compact reel that packs a punch. 👊💪 I've used the Curado DC, but I'm not a huge fan of it just because of it's size, but it's a killer reel. No doubt Shimano makes a great reel as well.

[@jaymobbs8157]

It’s like every time I want to go fishing, my wife wants me to mow the lawn. I mean come on woman! 3 months of neglect on our yard is totally worth the 3 months it took to finally catch a 1 pounder.

[@TackleJunky81]

🤣🤣🤣 For sure!

Just spray some WD40 on it and wipe it off.
