Sea Angling Ireland

ok i can cast with this reel with mags off (4 fitted ) it also has two brake blocks (small) if a man wanted extra few yards do i remove blocks or a few magnets ? also was wondering when casting do the blocks brake more at the beginning of the cast therefore losing distance :?:

go with the blocks.....if you start messing with the mags(like i did!) then you will most likeley get birdy after birdy(like i did!).

there should be no problem when you remove the blocks , it will definatley give you more distance , 4 magnets should be plenty as long as the cast is somewhat smooth you should be allright , try it .

i use my 6500 with no blocks and they work well just look at any of the penn mags no blocks

Use all my abus with no blocks... for general conditions etc I always have the mags on 2......... Blustery etc... 4 or 5 . never any higher unless there's a gale in my face.

No problems so far.

totally agree, on any of my reels that are magged i leave out the blocks and just use the one braking system.

thats what i thought never had a problem with my 525 s and can get a lot futher with them will get out the blocks and give it a spin
thanks lads :D
