Fishing Forum

I have a Browning Stalker reel. It's taken up this habit of when I reel in, the guide will go to the right side and then go a millimeter or so back to the left, and then it'll just go back and forth in that tiny spectrum. It spools unevenly. I've taken it to my local tackle shop, and they worked on it, and it worked for a while, but now it's started doing it again. I'm planning on going fishing soon, and I don't want my reel to fail me should I get lucky and catch something decent.

Your roller is wearing out. I had the same problem on a Garcia.

I've found some Brownings with 9 bearings, so I'm thinking about getting one of those and using the stalker as a backup.
