Got twelve cold water reels on my boat. Like the reel but drag sucks. That is from very time i bought them. Cant' back off drag with a big fish running . Got to crank reel a bit then you can back off the drag. It seems Okuma has still not corrected the problem. Should not have to have all of these drags updated on my dime. Just saying. Got to call company i guess. Want to buy some more but not unless problem is corrected.

I am very depressed now as i thought i need all three hundred flys on my boat. 

Got to love the dou-lock system. Almost too easy. Got one on all two hundred flashers and S-D

Does anybody on the forum have a solution for cables balling up on cannon riggers while retrieving?

Thanks so much for the info. Just trying to get away from cable balling up on the spool .Maybe someone has a solution to this problem. 

ANY WAY to run braid on cannons t make short stop work

Got ten of those reels 303ds and hate the fact you can't loosen the drag under pressure of a big running king. Is there a fix?  Thanks

All of these reels have done this from right out of the box. Love the reels hate the drag.

The issue has not been corrected. To see if you have an issue do this... Spool up with some line. Attach end of line to something fixed. I use the handle of the vice on my work bench. Pull out line. Tighten down on the drag with the star while pulling out until there’s a fair amount of tension. Continue pulling out line while now loosening the drag without touching the handle. Most Coldwaters will still now have the same drag tension as you loosen. If you have the issue you will notice very little adjustment to the tension while loosening. Now give the handle a quarter turn and the drag will completely free up. Come back to me for the 90% correction if your reels exhibit the issue.

Hi Gasman, miss read your post. I thought you had an old ap2000 king. Mine when handle is activated wheel turns to port about quarter turn of the wheel then doesn't change after that. If you turn off and then back on same thing occurs. ?????????? would you possible have an old manual? Thanks pal.

Sorry Doug didn't notice you had sold u GOT nit until after I called you. Got one of these on my  Sportscraft  that has  problems. They are hard to find as they no longer make them. Sorry to bother you.

Call Tony at Great lakes Planners great guy and a great product. I run his captain deluxe on my charter boat and love the system.

My go to spoons for kings and lakers are Finger Lakes Tackle spoons. Not a better painted spoon on  the market in my opinion. Got lots of NK's but run FLTS AS THEY WORK AND ARE BULLET PROOF. Nks are a good spoon but hard to get now. Love my Fullers.

POST A BIG SIGN ANTBODY FOUND ON MY PROPERTY AT NIGHT WILL BE FOUND THERE THE NEXT MORNING. Period

He will have to work around the clock when he returns. Great product.

How deep does a 2color ,4color and a 6 color lead core run? Say 2.2 speed Clean spoon.

New to lead rods. Thanks

Thanks Capt Vince this is the info i was looking for as i had read or heard this was an early problem. Will check when i launch the boaat in the spring and see which i have. Really like the speed but not the sudden stop at the pulley. Like you say stop them in the water. Really helpful.
