Nice work. Thanks for keeping it simple and effective. 25 minutes for reel maintenance? Ain't nobody got time for that!

Finally!!! The right way to do it... I had to watch painfully several to find a good one... thanks

Why are looking for how to videos if you know what the “right way to do it” is??? 🧐

Nice video and thanks for sharing!! This is how I take care of my spinning reels too, I have a couple of quantum reels that are 15+ years old and still perform like new!

I started watching some videos on KZread on how to oil / maintenance spinning reels, and your video was about the only one that addressed removing and lubricating the line roller. I started to clean my reels and did not intend on doing this extra step; primarily because I didn't think any of my reels had bearings in the line roller. It was only up until I came across your video, that I realized that their are parts under the line roller. Some reels have bearings in the line roller and some use lubricated plastic washers. Anyhow, I ended up removing the line roller on one of my reels, and low and behold, it was rusted beyond belief. After seeing that, I decided to take apart the line roller on the rest of my reels, and the same thing had occurred on every reel. I actually had to use an impact driver on two of the line rollers, just to get the screw out. I could not get them out by hand and did not want to risk stripping the screws. One screw did end up breaking. So that's how stuck it was in there. The point of this is that, I don't think enough people are addressing maintaining the line roller. This will now be the 1st thing I maintain on my reels before anything else. I am almost certain that the reason this happens, is because the line roller is the one part of the rod that is exposed to the most salt. When you think about it, every time you cast your line out into the water, your line gets coated with salt water. That salt water is then transferred to the line roller, and any residual amount transfers to the bearings (if any) of the line roller. Check your reels for this and I'm pretty sure you'll be surprised at what you find. This issue creates resistance that can be felt when reeling in smaller fish; and proper maintenance of the line roller will allow your line to roll with the line roller, instead of against it. After I lubricated all of my line rollers, I then took a rubber band, cut it and ran it back and forth across the line roller (in a V shape) to make sure it was properly lubricated.

Great comment. That is why for salt water I prefer a plastic bushing over a bearing. Almost every bearing in the end will rust. (from Holland)

Just bought an inherited rod and reel collection. Old and all need cleaning. Good winter project. Thank you!

Awesome video, super helpful, tacklejunky81 most underrated channel on KZread!!

The orientation of the gears is only important if your reel has an oval oscillating gear. There will be a marking on the oscillating gear and another marking on the main drive to show you where the alignment should be.

Terrific video! Most of my reels are spinning and I clean them every year. Except the last part with the bail, I was unaware of the baring. Thank you for the quick tip!!! I will be upgrading my cleaning now!!

3 year old Revo Rocket never cleaned. Watched vid. Cleaned per instructions. Installed new line and landed PB same day.!!!

I will always unscrew the handle and put grease in the hole that the handle screws into it makes the reeling a lot smoother

There are bearings in the handle knob that gets dirty quicker from your hands. So it would be a good idea to clean and oil those bearings or bushings.

Great video man! I was just thinking about cleaning my spinning reels. But I don't know a whole lot about them. I use bait casters mostly.

How do I put the bail system back together? I had to clean deep. It was pulled into the lake.

Great video do you clean out the old grease out first

I opened the top of my shamanic Selina spinning reel. But I can not fix it back. Can you please help me???

I have two Lews speed spool reels both the same model, but the bail on one reel is hard to flip over while the other is easy so do you have any suggestions on a fix like modifying a part on the reel.

My line roller is stuck to the plastic part on the handle Any advice ?

I noticed you’re using a Sahara 1000fd. Before watching this video I took my gears apart and it doesn’t seem to run as smooth. Can you take a picture and send me the manufacturer alignment of the Oscillating gears?

So I have a couple spinning reels that are almost 20 years old but lightly used. I noticed last time I used them I couldn't cast very far almost like it wasn't spinning freely when casted. I was going to try to clean them they never have been cleaned. The real question is do u think they can be saved? Or is it possible they are too far gone?

Love your vid‘s

How can I fix the rough edges on the spool?

Good stuff

I watched your video a couple of times. I got the courage to take the bail off and clean it in vinegar because it was so corroded. Now, I need help to get it back on. Will you help me? Wellness.

And how often do you do this ?

For the drag stack i dont have a plastic one just a metal one i am not sure if i lost it or not and cant find pictures or parts online it is a pioneer ec6000 xe if anyone has an idea please let me know

I did not read all the comments, so please forgive me if I am duplicating another comment. CORRECTION: what is shown as "drag stack" (2:57) is incorrect. The drag stack is in the spool. That washer allows for spool height adjustment. Thus, the spool could be lowered or positioned higher on the drive shaft. Less or more of these little washers make the line to wrap on the spool straight. Rather than cone shaped toward the front or back of the spool. If you do not believe me, check KZread. All the best.

Thanks

my reel is ancient and has the spool on the bottom it's a country mile 6

I took the gears apart on two tonight a little trickery but nothing someone w a memory cant do right, this video helped alot saved me some crucial money's

I didn't see much "gunk" cleaning besides the shaft. Is there anywhere else I should clean on a spinning reel without taking it apart?

Any other maintenance it will have to be taken apart.

Yes the handle. You'll see a knob on the opposite side of the reel body from the handle. Unscrew it and the handle will come loose. Wipe the handle shaft down with cleaner and swab out the hole with more cleaner. then apply a small amount of oil or grease to the handle shaft. put the shaft back into the hole and screw in the knob on the other side of the reel body. crank the reel for a few minutes to work in the grease and then your all set!

Can apply car engine oil? If no please suggest me the best oil for fishing reel !!! Waiting

In certain areas yes. The main gear and pinion gear really need grease. I recommend Cal's. Works great on the drag washers and on the gears. A drop of oil works well for the bearings. Gun oil is fine. Do not over apply the oil to the interior of the gearbox because it will thin the gear grease too much. Hope this helps eight months late 😂

*The reel looks very nice. **allabout.wiki/01fs** But compared to the same model I tested at Dick's, it is not that smooth. I guess this reel needs some run-in period.*

I took a cheaper reel apart once and it didn’t want to go back together again. 😂

First

So I have a different way on doing the reals! I would say my method is potentially MUCH better to clean things! I want to break it down between faults on your side! 1) although you cleaned the middle and then re applied oil, the problem you have is lots and lots of dust has already been inside all you’re doing is cleaning the shaft and adding more oil to attract more dust. My method is the below! 3 big buckets! Bucket 1) remove the top part of the reels and everything else that’s in the middle! Put them all in the bucket, fill up the bucket with warm water add 5 tablets of steradent! They will fizz like crazy the bubbles travel inside and remove ALL grime and junk, leave to soak for 1 full hour, and then spin reels underwater! Bucket 2) add warm water and fairy liquid! Throw it all in there add the reels let it stand for 15 minutes! After 15 minutes spin the reels underwater to remove ALL debris and old oil! Let them soak for 15 minutes more! Bucket 3) add JUST warm water! Throw everything in and spin the reels to remove absolutely all soaps and other debris and stuff! Soak for 10 minutes! And remove! Put reels on mats and let them dry for a FULL day! The next day apply 1 and only 1 tear drop of oil on the BOTTOM of the shaft groves! Spin spin spin the reel! Add 1 tear drop of oil to the sides of the metal clasp! And remove the side part of the reel where the arm holds it and drop 1 more teardrop there! Spin everything add it all together and you’re GOLDEN! I have had reels that have lasted me and still last for over 25 years! Currently using my Nash scope 4000! Did the above method once every 6 months to a year on all my reels! Put too much oil + on top of the old oil it’ll attract dust and it’ll destroy your reels! So my method and you will NEVER buy another set of reels and they will spin better than new! 😍 My 3 pence!
