  1. I have a 290 amberjack and installed a garmin ghp12 autopilot this past summer. So far so good. I used the Octopus remote power unit. I toll with the motor with power stewring. Works great. It took me about 8hrs to install the complete system

  2. I am replacing the drag washers on my tekota 500& 600s. Question. Should i grease the washers or fit them dry? I replaced my 700 & 800s this past season and fitted them dry. They worked great for the copper. Im just not sure if i should use grease for the smaller reels

  3. I think im going to order a 1000 ft spool of the "super45" copper. The dia is slightly thinner .033 compared to .037 "standard" copper. I want to put 700 ft on my electric Diawia Tanacom Bull reel.

    Does anyone have any idea of how much 50lb backing of power pro i should use???

    Thanks

  4. I got my new drag washers in the mail today. It took me about an hour to do the install for 3 reels. 40 min for the first one then 10 min each for the orher two. The drags seem great. Nice and smooth. I put them in dry. The trick for the click pjn is to insert a toothpick from the top to hold the clicker gizmo in and at the same time spin the star back on. I will post how they work on the water this week.
