Core 100 mg clicking sound.

I noticed my new core 100 mg makes a clicking sound when I reel it without any line spooled. If I apply any pressure on spool with my finger it is perfectly silent while reeling. Free spool is nice and smooth as well. I can’t seem to figure out what is causing it. Similar, but less noisier experienc...

G Loomis MBR 843 GLX

Considering trading and upgrading my mbr 843 imx to the same model in glx.
Does it make sense and will I notice increase it selectivity? Really like my IMX 84, but thinking step up to GLX 843 will be even better. Not sure it worth extra money...

Re: core 100mg side plate removal

It was an a new core 100, so both pinion gears were shiny and made of brass, main gear is aluminum on core 100 so it was easy) Thank you for reply.

Re: core 100mg side plate removal

While swapping core 100 gears with 100 mg7 , I put new and old pinion gear together on a table and now got confused which one is my 7:1 pinion gear )
7:1 ratio pinion gear will have a smaller diameter with less teeth compared to 6:1 , correct?
Thank you.

Re: G Loomis MBR GLX rods

Thank you for your reply,
I was searching on this forum and someone was saying 742 is lighter in power with more moderate action with 743 being more closer to 842 in power and action. Thinking 743 might fit me better and be more versatile if it can still be used for 1/4 top water.

Re: G Loomis MBR GLX rods

No, they have not other than most notably the 842. I'd be happy to get you as many MBR 782, 783, 843, or 844 GLX rods as you'd like before they change or are discontinued. I don't know if or when they will change or discontinue them either. Great rods, classic, and all of those listed will have a p...

Re: G Loomis MBR843 or 842 GLX

I only hold current IMX in my hands for couple of minutes in store and put it back, it was a big disappointment, not even close to my old imx MBR 843. I just got Zodias, but thinking of selling it and get MBR 843 or 842 GLX while I can. Although Zodias is a very well built rod, there is no "it" feel...

core 100mg side plate removal

Please help me with my core 100mg. Trying to figure out how to remove a handle side plate to replace gears on 100mg. Apparently it is completely different from Chronarch E, I see 1 screw inside at the bottom and 1 more behind the spool ( need to remove the spool first to get access). But where is th...
