OCEAN CITY REELS (WHERE Penn Got It's Begining) / Re: OCEAN CITY FAR KAST REEL
« Last post by oldmanjoe on March 04, 2023, 11:09:50 AM » I Thank you for the link . I was doing a little fishing to see if there was any interest in the far cast .
I just found one that i could not pass up ! There seem to be little information on the break down of this reel , mainly the cast control system .
I will post up some notes for a tear down , the crank side is pretty simple Ocean City .
I started by removing the crank side first , this will allow me to remove the spool first and get a peek at the left side pate .
There is a hinge screw that you remove from the cross bar that allows you to remove the beauty ring and line control bar so the spool can come out .
Now you can see the little spring that is hooked from bar to adjusting cam . A little push on the spring and lift off the on the cam side .
Now you can remove the left side plate . I feel this is the best approach . IF I removed the left side plate first , i may have stretched or wrecked the little spring and loose a little adjustment on the cast control dial . Some pictures . The rest of the reel is the basic clean up and reassembly .
