All of the low profile shimanos have the same style drive gear that is made of brass and prolonged use in saltwater they will show signs of corrsion, especially if never cleaned. I do have a citica that has been completely submurged three times now, and by properly tearing it down and cleaning it still works like new....  |
I use to clean them years ago but I just don't find that I need too...... Just add some Shimano oil and let ER Rip!!!!..... I would hate to see what the inside of my reels really look like!!!!! They might get a cleaning Next year!!(Maybe)
