mags

[jkswimmer]

What I did wasglue one3/8 in. magnet in my 6500 and works well with no blocks. There is no adjustment but it helps enough where I do not need the blocks. The 3/8 is the same size and strength as the one in my Penn mag 970. I bought them at Lee Valley tools.

christian, if you do it, use superglue gell and make sure you clean the sideplate really well with isopropal alcohol Start with 2 or 3 1/4x1/10" mags.. you have to put them in opposing polarity order, North, south, north or south, north, south.... then glue 3 washers from lee valley where you want the magnets. Then just stick the magnets to the washers. If you feel there is too much, remove a magnet. if there is too little, add a magnet.
