A small dab of loctite tread lock solved that now i dont know if mine was a one off however this would not put me off buying another. imo the best reel you can buy for around £20 atb geoff

The IBF40 is a good reel for the price, I broke the micro clutch on one when I hit a snag but that was just me pulling to hard and knocking the free spool on, think I sheered the gears. I definately wouldnt let that experience put you off though, i was just being clumsy! I still have an IBF40 which I use when I have a two rod system going.

They're OK if you don't go a lot or are inactive when you do go, truth is Okuma are just wannabe Shimano and both bow down to the mighty DAIWA.

I have just bought a Daiwa Regal Z, and frankly IMO the LB 50 is a better reel.
