I lightly rinse my reels after every trip.
About every 3 or 4 trips, i take the spool out and clean any dirt / grit with a kleenex or quitip and oil the bearings.
I have not taken the drag assembly off in about 2 years.....may need to do that sometime.
My reel is 6+ years old and still works very smooth.
I used a Citia (Sp) for a few cast last week. It had a little vibration while casting the line out and I did not think it was as smooth as my CU200BSF.
