The rust was in the bearrings for sure, and maybe other places too. they did say the bearings were shot. Which I pretty much told them because it became louder than a dry 706.

I wouldn't say I abused the reel, but I did fish it the same way I do a VS or a fully greased up Z. Dunk it when needed, use the rod as a wading staff, crank the drag down when needed, etc...

Still looking for my perfect reel.
