    Oh my goodness! That is absolutely unbelievable! You did amazing work and is a testament to what someone can do when they disagree with conventional wisdom and put their mind, heart and soul into something and make something amazing out of nothing. Reminds me of that old saying about "making a silk purse out of a sow's ear" Not to sound condescending, but it makes me proud that you would take the time to make a treasure out of someone else's trash. Great video Victor, looking even more forward to you future content! I did see the end, but you ended the video before I could see you land a fish.

    A phenomenal job you did restoring that old reel that was at the bottom of the lake. Although you could not find an anti-reverse device for it, it still works very smoothly. Great work.

    That's a fun project from start to finish. The new bearings and drag sure make it worth while. I've hauled up a couple of lost reels over the years, but unfortunately they weren't in great shape at all, junk reels to begin with before they fell into the water

    Thank you, this is Ryobi rebranded for Bass Pro Shop.
    Mikro lite elite is Ryobi to very smooth. Most of the Bass pro shop spinning rells are Daiwa. Thank you again very interesting video.

    • @ifishcatfish
      @ifishcatfish  Před 2 lety

      i don't think they are rebranded Ryobi even though it is possible it is almost the same reel. Ryobi doesn't have a factory any more and they just order reels from chinese catalogue and then pick some colors and handle and logo. Then it is possible for Bass Pro to order from the same catalogue. However this reel is Korean, not chinese, judging by the antireverse bearing.. so it is very confusing

    hello sir, I have a rust problem on my baitcaster with carbon body, since the reel was exposed to water and I didn't have time to clean it, rust appeared on almost all the bearings and bearing seats, I have ordered new bearings, but after I tried cleaning many times with WD-40 on the reel body and bearing seat, even though it looked clean of rust, after I re-lubricated it and use it, the next day rust appeared again on the bearing seat and it was very difficult to remove, do you know the solution to this problem? Thank you very much 🙌🙌, sorry for my bad english

    • @ifishcatfish
      @ifishcatfish  Před 8 měsíci

      wd-40 is bad. Just clean with Q-tip and some engine oil or simple grease. U can wipe it off later. The body is not really carbon if its rusting though...

  • @acardnal

    I surprised to learn that there was no gasket between the two halves of the body. I thought that would be necessary to prevent water penetration of the interior.

      what are you talking about? Give me time stamp. Where did u see anything to figure? The cylinders of that bearing were completely disintegrated from corrosion, they were just rust dust. Even the plastic frame of the ARB had disintegrated for some reason, even though it is plastic

    • @robertbrandywine
      @robertbrandywine Před 9 měsíci

      It looked like you were going to replace the open roller bearings with a sealed bearing but couldn't find one of those to fit. Perhaps you were trying to go that route because the plastic had disintegrated. (?) @@ifishcatfish
