Saltiga owners...
How much play is there in your bail, opposite the line roller? I was cleaning my reel up today, and there is what appears to be too much movement on the side with the bolt. I didn't want to over tighten it in the event that the reel came this way and I just never noticed it.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Thanks. I'll see if I can tighten it up a bit then.
You are gonna love that reel! What size did you get? If you can find one, get a round handle. eBay has them. MUCH more comfortable! |

Z 4500, same thing with mine. The reel fishes like a wet dream, though. |

Just checked mine - 5000Z with about 500+ hard use hours on it. Very little "play", but it does have some. I'd measure it in microns.

No movement, little more than a week old. It has a few fish in the 20 pound range on it already.
If there's a way to tighten it, I'd do it--that screw fell off a Nautil the weekend before last and I had to walk back to the truck and swap out reels.

Any ideas on how to do this?
Ok - never mind. Just went out and took a look at it. There's an interior Philips head screw.
