First time using my Tatula 100a today. After about an hour I started noticing a meshing sound or almost like there were tiny particles of sand in the spool toward the end of the retrieve. I'm using braid and I was wondering if it could be the line going under the bar in front of the spool.It would have more pressure on it the more the spool filled.Is this something that happens with this reel? I popped the side plate and put a drop of oil on the bearing.Going to try it out in the driveway now.
OK,taking a closer look at things the light bulb just lit up. I'm guessing the line goes OVER that bar not under.
