Smoothies are good, but I would simply replace the stock HT-100's as they are good as well and more readily available.

Time to get a bigger reel..................

Last winter I put the smoooothies in a 112H. I don't think they are any better or smoother thatn the stock HT100's. I was a bit disapointed after installing them.

Dunno if they make Smoothies for the smaller SS reels

You can get really good deals on smoothies on e-bay

I took the drag apart to find it was loaded with salt and grit. I cleaned it up and it seems to run smoothly now.
We'll see how it works if I hook in to a 40+ lb SBFT this weekend
