Great video! I'll be getting the same drag clicker next week for my SLX DC 151HG and also a carbon handle.

[@WhereWeWild]

Thanks man glad you enjoyed it! 👊🏽😊 Sweet you should be happy with it, easy to install and works well 🤙🏽

[@fishingwithair8727]

That was awesome - You did it way better than I did. I fumbled around but got it done. I used the set up and got my first Frog Fish on the rig. Well done.

[@WhereWeWild]

@@fishingwithair8727 Watching your chatter video right now! 😁 Thanks Air 👊🏽😊 Nice! I haven’t gotten bit on this reel yet, but we shall see. Hey did yours come with that extra part as well? 🤔

[@gerardocasas9140]

Do you think this same clicker kit would work on the slx mgl?

[@WhereWeWild]

Yes sir! Any SLX model. I put them on a couple of my MGL 70s. 🤙🏽

What is the best screw driver kit for reel maintenance? I try everything I hate stripping my screw every time I do my maintenance.

[@WhereWeWild]

@@RippinLipzAddictz I have mine and a few other decent options linked in the video description 👊🏽 Regardless though, always have to be careful and gentle and make sure you are using the right size bit and have a good lock up and fit. Also, I find that using a flathead to break loose and tighten the little Phillips screws help to not strip them. 🤙🏽

[@RippinLipzAddictz]

@@WhereWeWild I have all of them even ones that specific made for reels. I hate them soft Shimano screws. I will give that mako one a try

[@WhereWeWild]

@@RippinLipzAddictz Hahaha same and they’re tough to replace too, just have to try and be as careful as you can with them 👊🏽😊

If you go with the singmatools brand it comes with the tools you need, both greases and I like the design a bit better than this one(no glueing) the gear it comes with you have to press it in on a flat table with a good amount of pressing and it's pretty much tight as is.

will this kit work to install a clicker to a Shimano Caius 150HG? (a lower end version of the SLX)

[@WhereWeWild]

Not sure but I would think it would being so similar. The kits are so cheap too I’d probably just give it a shot. You know what I have an extra kit and a Caius B I’ll try it and let you know. 😁🤙🏽

[@WhereWeWild]

Ok well… It’s a little more sloppy but it works. Might need a little super glue for the sticky pad, little more tricky to center than the slx, and the blue top piece seems too thick where you can’t close the side plate back up, so you have to use the other silver top piece it comes with which is a little thinner. It was missing a couple clicks here and there as you pull line out for some reason but I went back in and bent the other arm of the clicker piece and that seems to have helped with the missing clicks by doubling them up, and the drag is locking down fairly well. Give it a shot. 🤙🏽

[@Yip247]

Thanks for trying it out and for your quick responses. Do you have a link to purchase the kit? I assume the install is the same as your video installing it onto the SLX reel?

[@WhereWeWild]

No problem I was planning on taking that reel apart and cleaning it anyway. Now it has a drag clicker 😂🤙🏽 I just got the kit on AliExpress just search shimano slx drag clicker it should come right up. Same exact install as this video just use the silver top piece instead of the blue one and if you can bend the other arm of the clicker piece a tiny bit to match the other arm it helps it click on every rotation. Should work well. 🤙🏽
