I have 2.

They are nice reels but if I had to do over again I think I would have
stuck with the Curado 100's.

My problem is that they have a scraping sound when I reel in. I think
the spool is rubbing against the housing but trying to solve it is
driving me nuts.
It seems to get worse as the reel gets hotter in the sun.
The Curado 100 I have is so quiet.

Anyone else have this issue and is there a solution?


I don't have a Scorpion but do have a CU100b and I assume the frames are
the same. If the spool is overfilled with line, the line can rub against
the recess in the reel foot. There's very little clearance in that area
and with braid or Fireline you'd probably hear it during a retrieve,
especially if the line is slightly bunched up in the middle of the
spool. During a cast the brake weights are noisy enough to mask the
sound.
