صيانة

تنظيف

After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse your rod with fresh water to remove salt, dirt, and debris.

• Wipe down the rod blank and guides with a soft cloth.
• Pay attention to the reel seat and ferrules to ensure no grit remains.
• Allow the rod to air dry completely before storage.

تخزين

Proper storage prevents damage and extends the life of your rod.

• Store the rod in its protective case or sleeve when not in use.
• Keep the rod in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Avoid leaning the rod against walls or objects where it could bend or fall.

تقتيش

Regularly inspect your rod for any signs of wear or damage.

• Check guides for cracks or loose inserts.
• Inspect the rod blank for any deep scratches or fractures.
• Ensure the reel seat is secure and functional.

استكشاف الأخطاء وإصلاحها

• Rod sections sticking: If sections are difficult to separate, apply gentle, even pressure with a twisting motion. Avoid pulling directly. A small amount of ferrule wax can prevent this.
• Line tangles (wind knots): Often caused by improper casting technique or overfilling the reel spool. Practice smooth casting and ensure your reel is not overfilled.
• Damaged guides: If a guide insert is cracked or missing, it can fray your line. Replace damaged guides promptly or seek professional repair.
