shimano citica

[mbhutton]

I have brought 15 0f the new 100dsv in the last few months.  I have replaced the bearings to ceramic ones and oiled them well, imo i have one of the smoothest reels out the for a little less than 180.  I have tried the Revo-sx but i found that there was to many adjustments to be made to get the brakes set right just mt .2c worth

You cant beat a citica with the light brakes and only 2 turned on. It will thro a weightless sinko a mile and wont even think about back lashing.

ss454, you should be good to go then with the line guide and pin. Call 877-577-0600 and tell the parts guy what you got and he will hook you up

GRRRRRRRR!  I just got a BILL in from Shimano for repair on this reel...I didn't have time to look at it really well but I'm not happy about this.  I know the reel wasn't abused and had very little use on it from new.

Did you send the reel to them? They should have sent YOU the parts for free

When I emailed Dan he said to send it in...all I asked for was the parts.

I think one of the ones I bought has the bad worm gear. No matter how I reel it I still get a lot more line on the left side. But the thing still cast a mile with just a hook and a worm. With the 1/2 oz on the wiggle rig I can almost spool the reel.

When you send it in their labor rates are high  Hopefully it's at least working again though
