These always help. Thanks for posting.

I need to get into my Torium 20. That reel needs some TLC. Been sitting backseat to the 16 this last season :-)

I have about 8 reels that need servicing, but the season just keeps on going.  When I'm finally down to an injury, I still have not brought them in... ugh

My saltist bg40h just went in today. It took a nasty spill into the sand yesterday. It was way over due for servicing anyway.

I love working on my reels, especially the Saltists ( all 8 of them  ::) ) LOL They are the easiest to work on by far! Still haven't gotten around to the Torium though.... Alan Tani's sight is awesome for the how to's.

Just went through my Torium 16 over the weekend. Hadn't touched it all last year and there was a ton of pressure on that thing. YT YFT Bats Sharks etc ...

Actually find it pretty relaxing. Maybe its my ADD ... something to really focus on ...

Re-did the drag washers, greased, oiled ... Smooth as glass now.  :D :D

Also dug into Paul sandy 20. Don't think that reel has ever been opened LOL ...
