*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

Just want to say thank you. I lost my Penn Fierce 8000 to the ocean waves, but luckily another fisherman pulled in my rod/reel after 20 minutes. Needless to say, the reel was inoperable due to all the sand inside. Followed your video and was able to clean, degrease, grease, and use my reel again. Looks good as new! For those who are wondering, it was my very first time disassembling and reassembling my reel. You can do it!

Get penn spinfisher vi, my rod and reel were lost for month in sea after month i found it on the shore and it still worked like new

Very nice, everyone should be able to take apart a reel and clean it. Especially if the want to do any long term fishing. Thanks so much for doing this demonstration.

Excellent Video PK. It's these kinds presentations that will grow your base of subscribers. A 10 minute video on even the most mundane aspects of fishing is welcome. Things that you take for granted, can open the eyes of a beginner like me when shown the detailed steps necessary to achieve the correct results. I look forward to more videos that show rigging, rods and reels to catch various types of fish, both freshwater and saltwater . CK

Always been scared to take apart any of my reels but this inspired me to try it out! Tight lines back at ya PK

A very detailed description of this "scary" process. Step by step guidance to a well cleaned and maintained reel. I'll practice first on my old-no-longer-in-use reels. This type of lubrication process will keep our reels in shape and "forever young." Muchas gracias.

Yes practice in old reels or buy “Cheapo” made in China reels and practice on them.

Amazing video, I’m new to fishing and bought a lot of second hand fishing gear and most of the reels needed some major TLC and you helped me give them that!

Thank you for your step by step video that helped me cleaning my 8000 poursuit after a short swim in the sea! Now, fully operational thanks to your advices.

You sir have done a great deed for the day by doing such great job, I have learned so much from you. Thank you very much.

I have had many problems with my battle 2 and have heard other people have also. I recently switched to the penn spinfisher. Another great video PK!

Just a tip for making salt reels resist saltwater. Once you are done cleaning your reel, let it dry completely. Spray a small amount of Pledge (yea the furniture polish) on a rag and wipe down the outside of the reel. It will not damage any type of line and it puts a very this layer of wax that will cause salt spray to bead off it will only last a trip or two. I do this after every trip.

Awesome Vid. I am laughing because I'd never get my reel back together.. :)

The 300 is still one of the best reels out there as far as I'm concerned. You can't get a more durable reel for what the 300 costs. It's an awesome value in my opinion. I guess it makes sense that they still make the 300 over a half century later.

Might not see this comment but thank you for the in depth video looking into all aspects of the reel. I’m a newbie angler but a friend bought me a penn fierce 3 combo for my birthday that I really want to take care of well. I’ve already improperly cleaned it twice by blasting water upwards towards the bottom of the reel with the actual intention of getting water into it not knowing that was bad lol.

@welshknight1456

don't blast water into your reel, water means rust. wipe the outside of your reel wth some WD40 on a soft cloth. strip reel ,wipe away sand ,dirt and old grease, once clean apply new grease. easy.

Just bought this reel and your tutorial will definitely come in handy. Well done! Thanks

nice video, and very helpful. Thank you!

That was a good watch! I’m gonna try on a reel!

Good stuff PK, thanks.

Thanks for sharing,good information.

Great video, thanks for the help.

Great video..thank you..from Northern Ireland.

Great video pk, i love these reels for their simplistic design (no reverse mechanism). I think i own 6 of them. Some feedback on greasing as others have said, in reels its usually best to grease gears and oil bearings. Grease vs oil is a popular debate in machine maintenance.

Thanks PK!

Great instructional video!

Good job, I do this to my reels, and it protects my investment. Salt and sand are very destructive. Do not forget to clean your reel seat on the fishing rod.I also inspect the guides and windings for damage and debris.

That reel is brand new!

Twice a year. 6 Penn Clash II, 2 Spinfisher Live Liners, 6 Penn Slammer III, 2 Penn Torque, 8 two speed Squalls ( trolling spread), 4 Fathom two speeds conventional reels and break them down at least twice a year for cleaning and lubrication. Be sure to remove old grease and oils instead of adding new to the old. The viscosity and lubricating qualities of old lubrication products break down over time and loose their viscosity. Tight lines!

I thought I wanted to clean my reel until I saw this detailed video

Thank you for sharing this video with us. Nevertheless, next time you should avoid 2 things: 1. Don't put so much grease in your reel. Only a thin layer of grease on the gear is enough. 2. Never grease the AR bearing. It will stop working in cold weather and otherwise. 1 drop of low-viscosity oil in it is enough. Good luck! 😊

well done.

I put a lot of grease on my reel and it was slower than before ⁉️ so I had to go ina wash it all off and but it on thinner to spin the same thing as new feeling. It felt tight or gooey feeling on the rotary sping. I use mineral spirits to wash out the old oil and grease with all the dirt. Then reoiled up light was the best feeling.

Penn Reel grease is good stuff

Very nice video. Just sharing from my experience, 7:44 AR ( anti reverse) bearing/ (roller clutch bearing) cannot be greased. The grease will prevent the roller pins in the AR from moving freely and it eventually will fail due to the pins get stuck in the disengage position. Very oil can be used. Cheers.

excellent full service job,but what about the line roller and bail arms? only i would degrease the entire gear box as it might have sand and dirt hidden in the grease and i would not use cotton q tips as they will leave strands,you really know your reel to have the confidence to take apart are those components and know how to put them all back together

Thanks! Really helpful. One question. To remove all old grease/oil to basically start over on lubrication, what is best solvent? I've seen acetone recommended several places.

@jayytee8062

3 жыл бұрын

Do Not use acetone for cleaning- only for stainless steel parts. It's not good for plastics, paint etc. Shellite/naphtha is alot better. Or Wd40 if you have to, as long as the excess is wiped off before applying new lubricants.

What and where to get those small screw driver and the other thing to pick small washers and screws. Thanks PK

Silicon grease like Magic Lube is highly water resistant. It stays put you will see.

Not sure if you want grease in your anti reverse bearing... it'll seize up in colder weather.

Holy crap dude. Talk about doubling the weight of the reel with grease! SMH

Thanks for the tutorial. This is great. Do you use oil or grease for the joints on both sides of the bale? I normally use grease if it needs maintenance but curious on your take. My owner's manual says to use oil on those joints but I'm using grease these days because I cast a lot on the surf and don't feel the oil holds up well with frequent operation.

Almost every reel i have bought takes a shit. I never greased or oiled. I always rinse my reels after saltwater fishing but they still go to shit after a couole years. I will be doing this to see if i can save some of them now.

How do I clean a thin battle to just like like you’re real?

Dude, if there is any sand, that reel needs to be stripped down and washed out with Diesel and a brush. Compressed air is your friend too. Diesel is 3 bucks a gallon. Will last for years.

now just need to get to get a newer pole

When a reel gets dunked in salt water, which of those bearings using need to be replaced? Over the years this has happened and I’ve brought it to a shop. Generally, they charge me for a bearing they they replace and the reel is as good as new. Is there generally one that gets messed up and affects the smoothness?

Replace them all as they all are affected by salt water,you just don't replace one set of brakes or rotor as you will just have to do it later...do the job once and do it right...

Grease inside anti reverse !? 🤔 I often see "no grease here" written.

Why would you put grease in the clutch?? 🤔 Supposed to be dry to lock and preform as a clutch.

DO NOT put any grease or oil on the anti reverse clutch or the collar that sits inside. These need to be clean and dry for them to work properly and lubing them may cause your anti reverse to slip
