I have 2 Daiwa Vientos, one on a Helium LTA and one on Kistler Magnesium. Both reels have a "loose" feel to them when place on the rod and tightened up as much as possible. Now it's not a really loose feeling but it does feel like it moves a bit when fighting a fish. Anyone else had this experience. I'm just wondering if there is something I can do to make it feel more snug. I also have a 101B curado on a Helium LTA and it fits snug and doesn't move at all. Any suggestions or thoughts?

What I would do is wrap the bottom of the reel with some thin tape and it will fit better on the rod.

i had a fuego that did that too, used a little tape and it worked great. shimanos do fit better in the reel seat though
