- A guide for beginners on how to set up a multiplier (baitcaster) reel fitted with centrifugal brakes for fishing.
Reels used as examples are: Abu Ambassadeur 6500 C3, Daiwa SL30SH (Slosh 30), Shimano Curado Bantam.
It took me birdsnesting up my slosh to stumble across this video. Ty for making this. It has helped me no end,looks like I'm stripping my reel today.
Nice one mate, thanks for this, you really helped me. New to multiplier reels and just bought a slosh 30. Sure enough, no blocks fitted. Glad I saw this vid, reckon I'd have been in for a frustrating first time otherwise.
Some great tips here - especially the oil tip. In my 1970's multipliers we uses 20/50w motor oil to dampen the spools. No brakes on those reels. However the SEA STREAK did have brakes but quite harsh by todays standards. I took it off - one of the most free running spools ever! The later ABU (as you show} have a central spindle with the bearings in the spool. Only snag is the oil from the bearing can get on the brake rim, which kinda defeats the object!
Sea shriek lol
Fantastic, thank you. Set my SL20sh up out of the box & hopefully no bird's nest when I get on the Bristol Channel!
Thank you Kindly, I learned More from you then anybody else... Appreciate your help
Great review as when buying first multiplier no set up instructions ,great all I needed
If you loose break blocks you can cut pieces off a wd40 red tube , they fit great
Best video about Daiwa. Just boughted yesterday and im green how to throw line by this. Thx for closer look.
The video is very enjoyable and informative, I learned a lot. Thanks!
Thank you for your video it was very help full
I just got the Adu 6501c3
Very informative and helpful. Thanks
Really valuable in depth info, thanks a lot for your time!
Thank you from british columbia canada
Excellent video
Very informative, unfortunately after following the advice, first time out I had 3 very bad nests but I think it was due to my casting style. I went at it like I did with my old 12 foot fibreglass rod with a new Akios 14 footer..lol
Thanks mate 👍🏻
in the US "open face) is a common turn for fixed
Great vid. Is tape the only way to secure the line when the reels not in use?? Unlike fixed spool where you have a line clip?
You just mentioned a problem I'm facing. I got the Abu 6000 with line feed/guide. I been told a shock lead will get caught on it. Some saying not to allow the shock lead to wrap around the spool, but I'm not sure what the point is then of having a shock lead as the weight could still snap the lesser lb line. I don't want to use heavy line only cause then less cast distance. Tapered line looks the best answer so far. Any thoughts you can share bud. I suppose i could remove the line feed, but i like the thoughts of it being on.
thanks for that
thanks mate
theirs a moveable dial beneath the spool/cast control knob . how do you use that please.
After 4.30 he talks about the "drag" - what does that do ?
Niels Dahl the drag controls how much line a running fish will be able to take off the spool, the tighter the drag the less line will be taken. It needs to be set up to B/S of the line you use. Very basic rule if thumb is to tighten drag and then pull off line with your hand. Keep tightening it until you can only just pull the line off (being careful not to slice into your fingers, use a glove or something)
what kind of line are you using
Do u recommend braid for distance
Abu 6500 you want 1mm of end float
How do you set the brakes/manners on a multiplier its impossible,giving it one more go before 1 diawa millionair, and 1 Abu ambassador reels go in the bin boxes as well there useless 🤔

very informative, well explained, thanks.
