slider Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 My 5000 laid down on me sucker grabbing Wed. It will reel line in when it has nothing on it but when you have a fish on it locks up. Any ideas on what could be the problem? DONT EVER GIVE UP MOSES WAS A BASKET CASE ONCE!
Wayne SW/MO Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Have you taken the handle side plate off and checked for loose parts floating around? It's sounds like a brake pad might be floating. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Kayser Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 What about a bent frame, causing the spool to lock up? Had this happen after I dropped a Royal Express a while back. Had to send it to the "parts" box. Still sad about that one. WARNING!! Comments to be interpreted at own risk. Time spent fishing is never wasted.
