The Story of the cursed shimano TR200G
Got this reel in about a month ago, the client told me that the reel only works in the day, at night it has no drag and no ratchet sound as weird as it sounded I gave it a service.
Washed the reel put new grease in tested the drag checked the ratched , all worked perfectly.
Next day he came and collected the reel I told him that he must take a video if it happens again but the reel is brand new nothing is wrong.
This morning the client returned with he's video and reel having proof of the reel only working at night, with a smile I said let me have another look, this reel is not going to beat me.
Placing it in the freezer to replicate the cold at night, the cursed showed it self, inspecting the reel opening it freezing unfreezing checking the spool and then it hit me, the braid on the spool goes loose when it gets cold shrinking the spool gives the line enough space to turn around
Taking off all the line to see he only wraped the line once around the spool we respooled it for him and lifted the curse
