Thanks for breaking it down simply and easily .... it's been decades since I last did any real fishing, and I'm just now working on getting back into the swing of things ... I explained to a bait & tackle shop worker that I was just looking to get back in the saddle with some simple bobber & bait fishing (having no idea how much rods and reels have progressed over all that time) and he pointed me to the Zebco series. I went with that 33 and was wondering what some of those 'extra gizmos' did! 😀
Just bought a zip code 33 tonight thank you for the informative video going to use at the ocean in Assateague Island Maryland tomorrow surf fishing thank you.
It always feels like these reels were designed for left handed people. Cast with your right, switch hands, and reel with your right. It’s a goofy design.
You have the cap on that Zebco 33 Classic on backwards. The drain hole is supposed to face towards the reel seat, and down towards the rod. That way it drains the water that collects inside the reel. What your are showing people is a recipe for rust and a filthy shirt. I saw your mistake immediately in the thumbbnail and it's the only reason I clicked on your video. I would take this down. Other Zebheads who are not as nice as me are going to tear you apart in the comments.
What was your first reel?
Zebco buzz light year rod 😂
Gotta love it

Good luck! That's a classic reel. Hope you catch tons
my first zebco rod combo was the 1989 404 then the 84 zebco classic i still use it
That is really awesome! They hold up really well!
Thank you :) from first time fisher!
Awesome I hope you catch tons of fish and have fun!
For some reason I can't cast spincast instantly snaps the line but I can throw a baitcaster on the same rod and reach 150yds or more
BS..
Good mantap
thanks!

Wow would you look at that! Learn something new every day! You are correct and the drain hole should be facing down. Thank you very much.
