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

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.
