What an exciting channel- thank you for sharing! I grew up in SSF where as a child I would throw cast masters in the flats of the bay while my father threw flies for stripers! This channle brings back many exciting memories! thanks for sharing your passion! FISH ON!
Have you opened up the hub on your Grip? If you haven't, I suggest you do. I've found that the reel is not 100% waterproof. I opened it up once and found water inside the hub. I've ran a few experiments and found that lining the O ring seal that goes around the hub with a light coat of lithium grease helps keep water out. I open it after every outing just to make sure it's dry.
What is the hookset like with these setups?
