Just got the emblem spod reel. Old model not the new 35scw. The drag on it is silent rather than having the usual clicking sound. Is this right or have I got a dud one?
Thanks

Daiwa Emblem Spod SCW QD.. Has anyone tried the new Spod reel,
I looked in the shop today, it looks good but feels a bit plasticky
I am wondering why it's so much cheaper than the original?

The drag knob is silent but the actual drag should click when the spool is turned, if its fhe latter then theres a leaf spring situated under the spool in a little metal holder/cup the spring ls almost an elongated c shape with a slight point, these do wear but are very cheap to replace and almost always the reason the click is quiet or non existent, they wear a flat on the point.

The old version is bullet proof. New is mot always better especially when it cones to reels.
Are you sure?
