    Hi guys newbie to the forum here. I purchased the 13 Wicked long stem ice reel and have only used it 3 times. Put it away for about 2.5 weeks and went out with it. The handle turns like normal but on the way back down after half a rotation its super stiff and doesn’t wanna keep going at all. I have 6 of them and only 2 of them don’t do this. Does anyone know why or have a solution on how to fix it? Any feedback would be appreciated Thanks!

    The solution would be to totally clean them,and use a high quality oil to re-lube them.Pay attention to the roller clutch,that should have very little oil on it.Too much oil or grease causes it to bind.
