- If your spinning reel is feeling weird to you. Got some tightness that you don’t like, you may simply need to lube your spinning reel to get it smooth as butter. First, I’m going to show you my basic way that requires no tools and is a maintenance function for me. I do this periodically throughout the year when needed and it only takes a few minutes. My advanced lubrication that I do around once a year where I take a deep dive into the gearing and break out the grease and it can get involved and requires some tools. Enjoy Basic and Advanced Way to Lubricate a Spinning Reel and let me know if you have any questions. -Daren

Thank you so much for this lesson! I have owned spinning reels for decades and never oiled/greased them. This has inspired me to do it and do it right!👍
Glad it helped!
Take a can of WD40 once in a while and spray your rod and reel , line and all thoroughly, then take a garden hose and rinse it off and place it in the sun till it drys . It will keep it clean and free of corrosion if you fish salt water .
Cool video buddy...thanks ! I'm gonna lubricate mine right now !
Gonna feel like butter!
Instead of using that screwdriver to apply the grease , I use a Q tip , it works very well, better then metal to metal .
Thanks for the video. Helped me out a lot. I bought a used rod and reel. The reel was not smooth. Bought the oil and grease you use in this video and it’s so much smoother now. Haven’t tried it out but it is smoother. Thanks again.
Happy to help!
eventually u have to clean it out, but id venture an average angler would do it once a year, before the big season they like to fish. doing yourself is easy enough but a professional can do it once a year no pain
I've used the Lucas oil for years is very impressive stuff for out door's activities. 🧐 One battle in each bag just in case someone might need some good stuff for 🎣 and 🔫 Lucas better than WD-40 for heat and stress areas.
Thanks for sharing boss!
Dumb question....is it possible to do this while fishing line is still on the reel? Once you remove the drag and spool, you should be good to go, yes? Great video....very informative! liked and subbed.
I don't believe you will run into a problem
If I dive into the guts of the reel then I'm taking all the parts out and cleaning them before i put new grease and oil in there. There's also a bearing in the front of the reel where the brass worm drive and spool shaft go through. I use the Lew's brand products and they work well also.
Hey:
Too much grease is as bad as not enough. If you overload the grease, it just attracts dust and dirt. Keep it light. There IS such a thing as TOO much.More is not necessarily better. Thanks for letting me rant.:
Good video thanks for the info I will apply it on my spin cast reels
Right on!
Maintenance is king. My truck has 534,000 miles and my fishing rods will last a long time too.
WHOA!!! 534000!!!!
Nice, its great to hear people keeping older cars instead of replacing at 70-100k miles. my Tacoma has 465k miles and runs like a champ. Only replaced the timing chain water pump and cracked header. Owned it since 80k 🫡..
People often ask me if I’m gonna drive my 88 f-150 until the wheels fall off. I say yea and then I’ll put them back on. No way I’ll be mortgaging a new truck when my old one does just fine for me 👍
I hope my reels last me for 534K yards of line retrieved!

Very informative Video, I learned some things. THANK YOU Mr. Wendell!!
Thanks East Coast Sunrise Adventure
@@wendellfishing u got it baby!
Enjoyed the video thanks a lot of good information
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the awesome information, Jim.
You bet!
Thanks Wendell, I needed that. Now over to your baitcaster video.
Right on!
Learned something too! Thanks man 😁
Right on!
I never did mine before I’ll be doing this as soon as I get that oil and grease
Right on.. I think you will be immediately surprised
I wish I had run across this video a couple weeks earlier. Great advice on how to take care of spinning reels! I have oiled mine in the past, probably not as frequently as I needed to, but have never greased the gears as you have shown here. Thanks for a great informative video!!
Right on brother.. glad it was helpful
😮/ mi ❤😊k
D t’s be b
No’cc f c be b v😮
I just bout two Penn reels , I oiled them and then looked inside the gear mechanism, they were greased thourghly, surprisingly.
Right on!
Nice..thank you for these
Happy to help
Have you done a video on the care of a Baitcaster?
Great question Barry.. I actually have around 8 or 9 videos coming out on baitcasters, management, oil, grease, casting, backlashes, Mag brakes, Centrifugal brakes, Spool tensioners, and when to adjust, etc. They have been fun to make.
I have a set of those old wood handle screw drivers
Good stuff, got the same stuff from Amazon 😆 good price. Need to get that Hot sauce oil 👀
Thank you sir!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
No problem boss! Happy to help
I just soak mine overnight in a bucket of used motor oil
You serious?
Same.
Works for close relatives too.
@@wendellfishingof course man😂
Really? and no issues afterwards? I might try that
There's 2 bearings inside the knob on the handle as well.
I thought I was going to have to trash one of my spinning reels because of lack of maintenance. I took it apart and greased it and it works like new again.
Awesome! Love this
Would gun oil work?
Get yourself a can of white lithium grease at the automotive store and save yourself a headache.
Where did you get that Lukas oil with applicator ,I’d like to aquire one . Thank you .
I got you: geni.us/LucasReelOil
can also use any gun oil
Here is a good read on it: fishermensangle.com/can-you-use-gun-oil-on-fishing-reels/#:~:text=The%20short%20answer%20is%20yes%21%20Gun%20oil%20can,come%20with%20using%20gun%20oil%20on%20fishing%20reels.
Can you use Vaseline for this? I used to use it as a kid for reels. I just didn’t know exactly where to apply it until now.
I wouldn't use vaseline
Cool video
Thanks boss!
Thank you for this♥️...I have a question ..Can I put some grease on new bought reels? most new reels I bought is a little try on the inside I was wondering if you can add more grease on it.
Of course.. some come as dry as the Sahara for some reason
hello i bought a shimano oil ang grease spray. does the grease spray do the same as the grease u using or should i use something like yours?
Hey boss, I imagine that the "Grease Spray" sprays like a liquid but congeals like a grease. I have never had my hand on those cans before but as long as you can direction the spray to where you want it to go specifically you should be good to go. Remember, Gears Get Grease... Oil the rest IMO
What Brand of reel are you servicing? Thanks
Lews
Do you have to grease the bait caster gears I usually just oil my bait caster I just got the Cuardo dc and don’t trust my self with opening the gears to grease them
Here ya go:czcams.com/video/AlzfhQ4xfss/video.html
@@wendellfishing thank you so much
I’m a barber.. I use the clipper oil.. 🤷🏾♂️..
You got what you got!
I use clipper oil and Vaseline. Vaseline is not too thick and very pure. Also, if it needs lube, it needs cleaning. Take it apart, unless you're a moron.
I just use mobile 1 oil personally
Right on!
Way better than light oil I had to drop off drips from my dip stick of 5w30 on my line roller but I think everything on a spinning reel should be disassembled cleaned and greased
Does gun oil work the same as reel oil?
fishermensangle.com/can-you-use-gun-oil-on-fishing-reels/
@@wendellfishing thank you!
Can't you just spray some white lithium grease in there?
Dude. Grease on the main rotor shaft. Not oil.
Lews, super reels!
Dude. Slow down, be easy. You are slinging that reel all over the place! Lol
I shot this during the winter.. I am going through fish withdrawal
Ok for emergency but that reel was loud everything in my opinion should have grease after being cleaned on a spinning reel.
Wth ?
@@davidarwood6264 is that supposed to be a intellectual comment? What does it mean?
Does WD40 work?😂
I wouldn't do it
Wd40 isn't a lubericent
Don't bother taking apart your reel and putting this on it It will mess up and not work right
Not following your logic brother
The reel body when unscrewing don't pop out and i had to pop out alot of parts. Your reel was more simple
