Title: Shimano Baitrunner 6000D
Post by: striperrules on July 07, 2010, 10:09:35 PM

Hi, I recently bought the Shimano Baitrunner 6000D reel. I have fished with it a few times. My problem is that when I'm reeling in with it it seems very hard to reel and it is making almost like a grinding sound. Is this normal? The reel is almost brand new. Just seems to me that when I reel in it is a little tough to do especially with a fish on the line. Any input or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

What Rod do you have it on?  Doesn't sound right to me..

Take it back and exchange it for another.  You might have gotten a bad one.
