Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Regreasing the main great after letting the reel dry out isn't that difficult. Remove the the retainer screw and handle nut. Take off the handle and unscrew the drag star. Remove 3 small screws then carefully remove the handle side plate. Let it dry out. Use a small nylon paint brush or tooth picks ...

Re: My Daiwa Millionaire CT SV70 SHL finally came.
Has anyone tried to remove those orange rings and install the normal 34mm spool in these? There's a few post about it, simple task just take your time. If you don't care to reuse it then even easier :lol: I might want to reuse them. Just not a fan of the 30-32mm spools the CT reels are using. Way b...
Re: EWG hooks
I like the Mustad Ultrapoint and VMC bigger/heavier hooks and the Fusion19 line for finesse hooks. I hate Trokars. They tear up plastics like you said and worse yet they cut such huge holes in fishes' mouths that you lose more fish. Might as well be fishing a barbless hook.

Re: Just my thoughts
I got a couple TDZ 105 spools recently I think with a great condition TDZ I couldn't pass up. Will have to try one in my Steez that I don't use much.

Re: New Steez A TW HLC
Does this reel have brass gears or are they aluminum like the regular Steez A? Do you think this reel is a good selection for Alabama rigs? Will this reel fit a regular Steez A spool? Since this reel has a 36mm diameter spool, the regular Steez A spool (and other 34mm spools) will fit, but have 1mm...

Re: Just my thoughts
Are the Steez Limited magnets different than the OG Steez?

Re: Cal's Grease and gears/bearings
I brush a liberal amount on the main drive gear and just let that coat the pinion. I don't grease or oil non-spool bearings, but my reels get minimal use. I brush a liberal amount on the drag disks. I also brush a thin coat of grease on the level wind track.

Re: Braid direct to BFS Spools (other) VOTE!
I have started tying direct to spool using this great knot (or solution): https://youtu.be/1QirU7zw6Bw Does not slip and is tight as.... That is what I use without the half hitches. I normally go around the spool twice prior to making the Arbor knot. Doesn't seem to slip. I'll try adding those half...

Re: What do you use to seal cork handles?
I use a thin layer of this rod varnish. It dries with a bit of texture so the cork stays grippy.

Re: Daiwa Zillion Type R drive shaft
I want to say OG Steez crank shafts will work also, but it has been years since I tried one, so I might be mistaken. If you have one you can try and see. I might have needed to take out dragstar washer to get proper drag range.

Re: Megabass Reels - No More? ... AGS rods?
Weird. This is the first I had heard of the Rhodium reels as well. I would have expected them to tune the TW Steez reels or even the Zillion rather than the standard Tatula CTSV.

Re: Would This Baitcast Rod Work for BFS?
Yep, should be great for small cranks and surface treble baits.
