Hello, after a bit of online research and Youtube scouring I still could not figure out where to add washers to fix the uneven line lay on my Penn Battle IV reel. As you can see, the spool is a bit uneven and I believe I need to add a small washer to increase the height of the spool so that less line accumulates at the top end of the reel. However, I am unsure where the washer goes on the main shaft. Is it above or below the drag gear? (if above will the clicker on the spool still engage the drag gear?) Should it be where the brass washer is? Or the grey/black rubber washer? Thanks for any advice!
Also, since I got a combo, I unfortunately do not have spare washers. Are there any reccomendations where I should get one? Will third party plastic washers of the correct diameter etc work fine?
Thanks!
