First thing you need to do is open it up and lube it really well.I bought a Stradic 2500 and opened it and it was almost dry.??? I have always opened new reels and found not much lubrication inside it.I like the Penn lube.It seems to do the job.
thanks. good idea. jan
Thanks Stono. Just bought a Penn Battle and didn’t even check. Good advice!
