It’s all good BCF tested multiple types of Shimano reels even the same model all have the pretty much the same wobble even some other brands he picked up in the display had a bit of wobble it’s got 10 year warranty so if anything comes of it if it fails I’ll get a replacement or repair 
 

thank you all for your help  

Cheers Rick

Is spool fully seated on the spindle?  Not sure on that model but if any of the metal drag washers didnt index properly on the spindle the spool may not be fully seated.  Did you remove spool at all?

 

No mate i haven’t removed the spool 

Ok I’m going to take it back after work tomorrow 

Oh ok I didn’t know that what do you think of the fluorocarbon line any good for river fishing I seen it on YouTube 

I’ll definitely compare with there display model these are sealed boxes from the manufacturer 

here’s a link to my instagram with the video I hope posting videos from my instagram is ok

I added the video before and it didn’t post with the text 

So I purchased a new reel for my rod since I haven’t been fishing in a long time 10+ years and my old reel has some corrosion.

I purchased a Shimano Miravel C3000HG the other day at BCF took it out of the box this afternoon to put some line on it for this weekend and I was looking at the reel and noticed that the reel has a lot wobble on the spool no idea why I don’t think this is normal to have this much wobble even if you tighten up the drag it still does it and then would probably be too much drag for bream or flathead 
 

Is this a faulty reel should I take it back and get them to look at it 

I don’t know what do you all think about this 

cheers Rick
