Reel lube

[1fastmerc]

I'm needing advice on the best lube to use on your reels. I have some that need a little tlc.

get the Shimano Oil............Best

When talking with Shimano they said a lot of repaired reels they repaired had Hot Sauce in them

I use Shimano oil only....Works

I also use the quantum hot sauce and keep a bottle of reel magic in the boat. Reel magic is some good stuff

X2 I use both....reel magic really works well for keeping mono limp.

How much would it cost to get some chronarchs cleaned and all the bearings changed. I got a bunch of them that are just completely wore out.

I see alot of guys rinse there reels off after use..........This is the worst thing you could do..
#1 Reason....Traps water
#2 Reason....Pushes Saltwater deeper
#3 Reason....Add moisture inside moving parts
#4 Reason....Rust

Whats the best thing to do after a fishing trip? I have always just sprayed them with a hose minimizing the direct shot to the reels.

Nothing.....if you want whip down with light wet rag ....

I never do anything with mine.... I might hit them with reel magic spray.....

I clean my reels once a year ...

Have one core I have used for 2 years now and just changed all the bearing a month ago...
