The tool kit is awesome, I'd love to see more fixing reels,and replacing bearings handles etc.I really miss some of your older videos doing that,please keep up the great content.Thank you
Reel maintenance, repair, and modification? Yes! When I can't get out to fish, messing around with tackle or lure organization is my jam. Throw in "tinker with gear", and that'll carry me through those busy weeks when I don't get to the lake.
Dig the how to vids great to save in the library especially in the winter down time. Very helpful to look back at when cleaning the reels after a long season of fishin.
The fishing reel tool kit is sweet I do some general repairs, find it really satisfying cleaning and repairing my gear and would dig a kit like this. I’ve tried cheap screwdrivers, wrenches, toothbrushes and find it lacking
I love seeing videos like this! I do a deep down-to-frame cleaning of my reels once a year. If you lubricate and service them after a fishing trip, plus a good cleaning once a year they’ll last you a very long time!
@@DEBOSFishing I’m a sucker for 90’s Jim Carey movies he has always been one of my favorite actors!! Awesome video btw I like to tinker on reels as well. Just trying to make them better. I first have to get some reels as I don’t have any right now but some day haha
One more trick I use to clean my bearings is I bought an ultrasonic cleaner from Amazon for like $20 and the vibration cleans the bearings and then you just put oil in them and your bearings are good as new. I use Reelx oil and grease it’s the best stuff I’ve ever used and prevents rust if you use your reels in saltwater
I like to watch the reel repair/upgrade/cleaning videos. Always learn stuff. Spinning reel stuff would be cool too. Only problem I have had so far has been with a spinning reel. Fixed it by trial and error and a schematic I found online.
That most of what he entertained us with last winter….and making baits,and I unboxings and anything else he could think of. Kept our meeting minds on feeshin’. It was enlightening. And fun!
Had to review, just received a Daiwa Tatula 150HS 7:3-1 for my frog reel. Just wanted to lube it alittle. Seems nice and tight! Now to wait to get some line going to rock some 65lb power pro. Can’t wait frog season will be happening soon! Thanks for the time you spent disassembling it for us!
Got that right on the 95%. I've got so many expensive reels second hand that just needed a good cleaning or a worm gear change or clutch bearing... really like that kit, might have to buy one, instead of searching for all my tools everywhere so I can service my reels
I like using graph paper and laying my screws and things in that after drawing a rough outline of the reel and where that goes. It makes more sense in practice than how I explained it.
gotta love the Stubby dog. My Bubby dog goes nowhere without me either. He even likes to go Feeshin with me. All I have do ask him " What to go Feeshin? and he ears perk up, his tail starts wagging, I open the door and he heads for the truck. he pouts if I go without him.
Do you think the newer handle screw has more thread engagement on the main shaft? Also curious if they recommend any thread lock on the threads? Maybe a dab of medium blue? Those handles look sweet though! I need to throw one on my CT to get some extra "ugga duggas" as I winch in those 1.5lbers. I'd love to see a bearing install. Check casting distance before and after to see what you changed. Thanks for the vid!!
Heck yeah... fixing your own stuff! I've blown out a few bearings, I generally enjoy tearing them down with the kids around though, so I can lose the little pieces ;)
I pulled an Abu Garcia spinning reel on a Cherrywood rod out the water at Saylorville dam and refurbished it and caught a few fish with it that season before finally retiring it 🤘🏽😆♥️ I got it as smooth and quiet as I could, but I just couldn’t get it to run like new and the guides on the rod were missing ceramic rings or whatever Cherrywoods have, was fun.
Debo, You should look into getting a set of Wera screw drivers for baitcasters. The flathead screw driver is a size 0.8-4.0 for Diawa as they use flat head screws and the Phillips head is a Wera posidrive size 0 (model 3355) and it fits reel screws perfectly so you don’t have to worry about stripping the little screws. You can get them on Amazon but they work really well and I’ve never stripped a screw. They are a game changer. The flat head driver you probably don’t need as any flat head will work but the Phillips head screws can be stripped easily and the posidrive size 0 will pull them right out. The posidrive works for Shimano, Lews, 13 fishing and Abu Garcia. You won’t have to worry about stripping the screws. again. Thanks for everything you do
Would love to see more reel care and repair although I’m thinking I should just send you mine cause I don’t have the juevos to take apart my nicer stuff 😂😂 keep it up 🎣🎣🔥🔥
I jacked up my Diawa Tatula CT100XSL when l hooked a giant snapping turtle. Totally my fault, l tightened the drag all the way and dragged it in. Now when the drag is set stiff the handle and spool pops and spins. I'm definitely going to attempt to fix. I pulled the handle and side plate off and poked around a little but couldn't really see anything obvious.
I'm just now watching this, I have a tatula 300 that has a waorn down pawl. I saw your other vid about pawl replacement, best on the tube! Quick question, what tool do you recommend to remove e-clips from reels? As you know, Diawa has some tiny e-clips, especially the ones securing the worm gear. Thanks!
There's a couple of lakes here that prohibit the catch and release of trout and carp. If I'm bass fishing in these lakes and I happen to catch a trout or carp, what should I do? Is it even likely to catch those fish while I'm fishing for bass? I'm new to fishing in lakes
Daiwa service did you kinda dirty with that reel nut Their customer service has been hit or miss for me, usually good but… Shimano by comparison is top of the line, even though I have more daiwas by count..definitely a consideration for me when shopping for my next reels, my last two have been Shimanos
Debo, one of the boys at my school asked me to help him with his casting reel. The thumbbar does not go down or click when pushed down. How can i fix this? I just cleaned the reel and put line on it for him. I really don't know what to do.
Hey Debo, I have a question. First off, I have been out of work for 3 years now and am 60 years old. Now that being said, I want to buy a frog. In your opinion, what is the best 2 or 3 frogs to choose from? I will pick one that suits me from your top 3. I will tell you that where I fish, black lures don’t do too well. White and chartreuse seem to be too dog in that water. I just want to buy one. Any help in which one would be appreciated. I was seeing you doing well with the spro?!?? With the green and chartreuse top??? Also do I need two and the other be a popper, or will one do it for me? Think super super tight budget. Thanks.
Hello , I have a second hand Mitchell SC3000 Spidercast reel. The problem I'm experiencing is when winding the handle to retrieve the line , it works , then stop working. I tried looking for youtube videos, no luck can you help. Thanks
I'm surprised you were even able to strip the thread just from puling on the handle. Not sure how I feel about Daiwa quality now. How strong are the Shimano reels?
If you ain’t providing food or toys don’t think mr stubbs is to interested in it lol. I have a lews hank Parker reel with magnetic brake problems. Don’t know if it’s something that I can fix myself or should I just send it back to lews
Working on a reel is a blast and should not be intimidating. When I buy a reel (used or new) I take it apart immediately and upgrade or modify the lube and bearings to MY standards. Even some high end models leave the factory dry and with missing parts. It's a great way to learn how the reel works and customize it to what you need it to do.
Hi DEBO, can you help me pinpoint what could be wrong with my Daiwa Feugo CT? Sometimes when I'm jigging a metal spoon, the reel suddenly goes into freespool and then I get a nasty backlash. I swore I did not accidentally hit the thumb bar. This has happen to me twice already and now I don't feel confident using the reel until I can get this issue fixed. What do you think could be the cause of the problem?

I'll be doing more soon!👊
"Like a glove" love the reference, glad you got it fixed that reel handle looks sweet
I wondered if anyone would get it! 🤣👊
DIY feeshin friend. Nice job Debo. I bet it's more than 95% of people that wouldn't fix that. Thanks for the video man. ✌️🎣
i went in on two of them, it didnt go well.
Yeah, like anything else it just takes some practice. I'm no pro but it's fun to tinker!
I so want a tatula 200.
Keep up the good work man.
They are awesome reels!
Reel maintenance, repair, and modification? Yes!
When I can't get out to fish, messing around with tackle or lure organization is my jam. Throw in "tinker with gear", and that'll carry me through those busy weeks when I don't get to the lake.
You make it look like a walk in the park fixing that reel i think about taking a reel apart and i start sweating great video Debo
Hahaha nah, once you do it a few times it's a piece of cake!
@@DEBOSFishing if you say so

Yeah, it's very satisfying to clean and fix your own reels!
Get a Wera posidrive size 0 for your Phillips head screws. It’s the best screw driver I’ve found for reel repair and won’t strip the screws
Would love to see more about bearing. Such as removal, cleaning, lubricating, install. Keep up the great work.
Awesome-You got parts👌🏻
May as well give the Category 5 sticker to Randy for the fridge. Then it will appear on live streams!
Great work, might need to pick up one of those repair kits!
It's a sweet little kit!
Dig the fix it vids, gives one confidence to try it myself, thanks...
You can do eet!
DEBO!!!! Our hero!!! Dink master!!! Fixer of reels!!!!! Thanks bud!!!
😳 Debo is a reel scientist lol, great video👍
I love tinkering with reels!
😂😂😂😂
Great video I like how you showed the whole process. I would like to see some spinning reel tear downs
I like this kit !!!This winter would be a good time to take my reels apart clean and regrease/lube them up 🤔
Perfect time to do that!
That handle screw use what’s called a “torx”. They’re pretty common now for most of the screw heads now.
Ahh... Welp now I know! Thanks for watching 👊

I'm not the best with spinning gear breakdowns. Sounds like a winter project for me!
Love maintenance and upgrade videos!
Good stuff maybe sometime you can break down a spinning reel as well 👍🏿
Ughhh... they are not my favorite to work on 🤣
👌🏿 I understand
I would definitely like to see a video on your opinions of some different handles and knobs.
I've had that vid planned for a while! Just need to shoot it!
Nice job Debo! Like seeing reel maintenance & repair. Winter is prime time for that stuff. Really dig that kit you have. Super handy.👊
Yep, I'll definitely do more this winter!

@@tdeeb6359 yes it was!
I appreciate the reel repair/cleaning/handle videos a great deal. Also look forward to the next frog rod/reel/line video.
You've got a nice camera. The shots of the reel and gears ⚙ was crystal clear. 👍
Awesome, hope folks enjoyed it!

Great video and definitely nice repair kit. Will have to look into it when I get ready to do my fishing side business.
👊👊👊
Awesome job!! I’m glad you were able to fix it!!
Thanks for watching man 👊
Stubby is such a cool relaxed dog. Very cool video. Would like to see more videos of replacing bearings and upgrades. 👍🏻
I love that dog so dang much!
Definitely love the repair/upgrade videos! keep em coming Debo!
Diawa just sent me a second spool for my reel. Affordable and easy to work with!

I'll do more soon!
Always love the fixing videos. Thanks man!
Im shocked more guys dont service or repair their own baitcasters, theyre simple as hell and parts availability is great. Hella aftermarket parts.
That is some serious patience! Another great video Debo!👏🏻👊🏻💥🎣
I'm a gear nerd and I enjoy it 🤪 Thanks for watching man!
@@DEBOSFishing is be terrified of losing something or breaking something…going to have to do it sooner or later. Gotta maintain that equipment!
I have a quantum s3 smoke and a lews I need to tear down and deep clean. Probably just do some light oiling until the year ends though.
Great vid. Would love to see more maintenance vids.
I'm gonna have to look into the reel repair kit, has everything one needs in a convenient case.
Great video !! I love seeing how reels are built but just haven't had the patience to try to work on one myself
Thanks for showing how to take apart and service a baitcaster reel
Super helpful video. I’m sure I’ll need to reference this one at some point.
Love watching fixing vids
“If you have a graphite sideplate don’t tighten it too much or you can crack the sideplate” Yes! I agree! I learned this the hard way
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really good tutorial Debo, your the man

Yeah, I like this version a lot better. I don't think it says to use lock tight but the stuff that you can break open makes sense.
i finally found some body that had the same problem as me. Thank you for showing us how to fix a daiwa tatula 200.
Impressive repair work. To do this kind of activity, one must have self confidence (and some tools).
Torx wrench is what you used to put that nut on to secure the reel handle. The tool kit is pretty cool. Tone down your hook set, it can get expensive.
I never knew I was so strong 🤣🤣🤣
Heck yeah... fixing your own stuff! I've blown out a few bearings, I generally enjoy tearing them down with the kids around though, so I can lose the little pieces ;)

Yo Debo I collect stickers to do sticker bombed epoxy tumblers.... I'd be happy to take any you don't want... Lol
Where did you order the main shaft from? Im having a really tough time finding a screw replacement for a Tatula 300 atm...
