Just cleaned my ABU 6500-C3 and added a gator grip handle. However, now when I crank it really fast and stop it suddenly, the spool keeps spinning and it starts makes a clicking sound. When I crank, there is no clicking sound. It is a much deeper click than when the clicker is enabled. I don't remember the reel doing this before, but it has been come time since it was cleaned. Is this OK, or have I put it together wrong?

Any thoughts?

this is how they are right out of the box. All it is, is the antireverse catch going the opposite way on the wheel. You can do it with any garcia right off the shelf. NOthing to worry about.

Thanks, I was hoping that was the case. Now just to try it out to make sure it doesn't "squeel like a pig" when I cast it.
