Very helpful gotta do my reels

I have used sewing machine oil and grease for years. The stuff is made for high speed gears and applications. Never had any issues with using it.

Nice! I have never heard of that. Right on

This is a good time to inspect for damage, too. A tab was broken internally that holds that little guide rod in one of my Lew's spinners and once I took that side cover off it fell out and just wouldn't go back together right. Good times 😮‍💨. I replaced it with a 13 reel to give them a whirl.

Nice Catch Bucktail! Sucks is was broken

On a bearing has a sealed on the outer side and will only take oil bye the center of the bearing. In less it's a open bearings. Clean bearings with mineral spirits 🤔 even the dirt will come out and the grinding will go away after oil- grease.

Perfect timing! I was just looking for a vid on this lol

Great tutorial man! For those with a baitcaster with a free floating levelwind (does not disengage when you cast) like older ABU Garcia's, make sure to use oil, not grease on the worm gear or you will hurt the casting distance significantly.

Next video can you make a before and after fishing routine of a kayak fisherman. I would love to see that!

A master class of a tutorial Daren. Or maybe just call you D. Which makes you D-man. That's your new handle. BTW I use Rem oil, just because I have it, works great.

Why didnt you do the drag washers ?. Inside the spool ?

You don’t need to Greece the drag cap?mine had Greece on the inside of it

Can I ask what camera you use for your videos and what computer and editing software you use? I’m making kayak fishing videos but I shoot and edit with my iPhone.
