Anyone got one of these? Looking for a new sleep system that won't break the bank but there's not much online.
Everyone recommends the new sonar but it's £600.
I want something twin layer so it's summer and winter. The advanta looks ok. Only concern is how long it lasts.

Yeah looks like it! No doubt done in the rod bag it was always squeeze getting three in

I have three newish reels I've been using for a few weeks. Okuma obsidian. On use today I noticed one of the bail arms seems lower than the other two reels. See pic

The one of the left. I can loose the screw to move it up but this would mean the roller isn't in the same position as the other two reels and doesn't seem aligned. Anyone got any ideas?

Yeah looks like the grease has ‘come out' more on this one with noise

Noticed one of my bail arms is loose or has dropped in compared to the others.. It looks like it's dropped down. Not sure if the screw is loose. The roller seems aligned though. Maybe it was made this way. Anyone noticed if all their reels aren't identical

I've noticed this on one of my reels now after slight use. Did you find a solution?

How are you finding the drag

In reply to Post #1
Just to update. I went with the Okumas. Ive only had one session so far. I really like them. Line lay is great and the reel feels smooth. The drag is quick and it took me some getting used to you need tiny one click adjustments. I will give them a few more sessions and see how I go.

Cheers, spoke to them. They do not have felt washers in the right size and only stick to OEM parts.

However, something like below has been suggested cut the right size.

I've been to have a look at the reels. To be honest the drag is quick but its not as bad as initially thought side compared side by side to the shimano 14000 xte. The XTE you go from locked up to FS in around half a turn.

The obsidian just over a quarter. Very similar to daiwa QD

Thanks. Seems a little complicated. Im not familiar with changing washers. Such a shame about the drag its the only thing holding me back. Might go for the Shimano Ultegra XTE 14000
