I have one liked the reel hated the rod. I was looking at them tonight at bass pro, hate the thought of spending good money and only getting one season out of a reel.

[quote=bob46;356358]I bought a new Quantum array last year from all places Plapps.
Fished it all last season. Cleaned it lubed it. I was restringing it today, and noticed the reel clicks, or ticks when reeling in, I tore it apart and worked on it for 2 hours, and still it ticks, or a thumping sound. I think the gear off of the handle might be slightley bent do not know, and cannot take it back to plapps[/quote]
Call Quantum and tell them. Heck they might fix it? Then get a Shimano.:)
Re: Spinning reel problems
I agree call them, seems they [U]should[/U] make it right????
Re: Spinning reel problems
I tried them several years ago due to recomendations from a friend who got a good discount. Waste of money. Shimano or Okuma.
Re: Spinning reel problems
If its quantum, throw it away, they are mostly junk.Get a diawa or shamano. I have a wide spool diaawa that is almost 15 yrs old, and all of it works just fine, even the quick fire.But I'll be damned if I shell out 250.00 bucks for any spinning reel. A 60 buck one works just fine for me.
