It looks like corrosion to me mate, I think the Delkim storage tube I keep them in, may be playing a part in all this. I've mailed them so we're see.

All the stuff you get from keith comes with a light covering of machine oil and he knows his stuff.

Bobbins hung on the piss, had corrosion, metal balls wouldn't roll with the line. Got rid and went with elstow bobbins with mcf chain

You know delkim will tell you to dry them and put them in a nice warm place between trips

Always fully dry all my gear, alarms, swingers, even unzip my rod holdall to let the reels/spools fully dry.

"Having used Solars indicator systems for years I moved over to the delkim indicator range and the slim lite has been superb. However the MPS defiant is the best imho."

What ones are you using? ... I am looking at them.
Are you sure?
