Trying Out My New Lews SMASH Rod & Reel!

[@ForemanMade]

I got a couple mystery tackle boxes and a new net! Lots of high quality soft plastics and a NICE crankbait in them

[@thomashubbardfishing]

That’s awesome!

[@Ja_Bryson]

I got a new vr headset some new baits, and a new pole and rc car and that is a real nice pole

[@thomashubbardfishing]

That’s great! Sounds like Santa hooked you up good this year!

I have the same reel and it's funny just today I was trying to take the spool out for maintenance but could not get the side plate off. Pulled the pin but nothing is moving. Remembered having this problem when I first got it.

[@thomashubbardfishing]

Hmmm I’ll have to watch out for that whenever it’s time to take the spool out

[@samaxe3489]

So I just got the side plate off. Pull the pin and then turn the side plate counter clockwise. My reel is left handed that my make a difference if yours is right handed. The video I watched to help me the guy pulled the pin and did not specify anything else. Hey good video despite no bass.
