Hi Richard ,,or any one that knows about the Diawa Emcast reel
Bought a pair of these used reels for pit winter pike fishing from e bay ,they are well used I reckon but hopefully should do the job.
So of the two one of them does not lay the line completely over all of the spool, the other reel seems fine.
The rise and fall of the spool is not enough as you wind in resulting in a gap of some 5mm towards base of the spool where the line has not laid.
I have tried fiddling around with it but wonder if there is a spacer or obvious tweak that can be appied,maybe its a possible bale arm prob ?
Also can new clutch "damper" washers be purchased,,,are they anything special ?
Anyone else had similar prob ?
Any ideas ?
Thanks
