I have a small Quantum spinning reel for wading creeks (~ 100yds/6lb) which I spool with 14 lb braided (4 lb diameter). Something is wrong with it where is hard to reel in with any type of lure(load) on it. I have completely broken it down , cleaned and lubricated everything. It spins fine with no line out.
Any thoughts. Could the brided line have dug into the line roller?
If all else fails............
Any recommendations on a repair service?
A new reel (of like type) recommendations? Cabela's has some nice ones, but reel prices are absolutely ridiculous these days. I gave about $130 for the Quantum, and I thought that was bad.
Thanks
