Baitcaster help

Post by The6ftJerk »

So i decided to buy a large low profile baitcaster one of the abu toro range, is it normal to feel the mechanism in your hand working on every turn should i say a slight klunk? Apologies if im being picky but my cheaper abu 5501 c3s seem to be alot smoother.. any advice guys or is just that im used to using something else?
