For those of you that still backlash, Stanley tools has a nice littel kit of things called "hook and pik" set. Ideal for backlashes I would think.
Also work very well to pop that steel washer off the top of your reel handle, the one that keeps everything from sliding off, yeah that one, anyway it's ideal to ping that thing into never never land.

These things would also make a heck of a good frontal lobotomy starter kit, too. Very useful. Very useful indeed.

Anybody got one of those little split washer dealies that goes on an Ambassedeur 5600?

Come on now, you know they are called a professional overcast, and every now and then you need to pull all the line off by hand to be sure it isn't nicked or frayed, not to mention just to be sure you have enough line left for the big one that would have hit on that cast had you not slammed the lure onto the surface like a rock because of the professional overcast.
