I use ArmorAll for lubricating bail arms and springs because it stays slick and does not collect dirt or get all gummed up

Almost Ready to Wrap This Up Before I finish this review, I want to talk very briefly about the one quirk that I found with this reel

I have this model in two iterations: a 7-foot ultralight with a size 40 reel (which is a darned near perfect crappie setup) and a 6-foot 6-inch medium action with a size 50 reel (which I currently have rigged for channel catfish)

Sometimes you'll have to pull line from the spool with your hand to create that natural drift speed of your float
