when you get it
; dont try casting to the stars . shorter casts until your thumb and brain work together . understand ! good ! practice practice practice and when you think you have it down practice some more , they take some getting used too . Its a real good thing you got one with a level wind . Steve B will hook you up with anything you need just email him with questions . He will be calling you if he hasnt already . Its just the kinda guy he is , he wants happy customers . oh yeah dont forget to practice did I already mention that good cause I cant emphasize it enough !

so learn that thumbing of the bell ( lip inside of housing before the line . practice practice practice ! also learn ( have your local reel guru show you how to take it apart ( 3 screws on handle side the ones that are above the side plate ) to oil your bearings , making sure the brake blocks dont fall off . they help from backlashing the reel buy keeping the spool speed down when casting ( dont remove or change them till you have been using the reel for some time .
