Fall is here. Winter is just around the corner and the rods and reels are put in the corner and the bows and rifles are now in vogue. Fall is also a great time to get all of your reels in top notch order too! Go to the shop, turn on some tunes, spread out some paper and get after them. But first, buy a reel cleaning kit from Ardent. This all in one kit has everything you need to take your favorite reel and make it work like new again. Convenient case, screwdriver, Reel Butter, Reel Kleen liquid,Synthetic Swabs, and a silicone cloth and a minimum of elbow grease and you have the ingredients to care for all of your reels.
The magic is taking the old and making it like new again and this kit will do it. Not only will it save you money but lost fish as well. Start with Reel Clean. A spray or two and grime and build up goes away quickly without residue. Give them a dose of Reel Butter after thoroughly cleaned, put them back together and you are ready for spring.
Don't forget to back off the drags on your reels and use a little Reel Clean on your rods too. Spray some into your reel seats, guides and blanks, wipe off. A soft wipe with the silicone rag and they will be ready too.
Ardent has a great video on reel cleaning and ongoing care too. You can view it by
