loud clicking

i have an older orvis spring and pawl reel (it was a madison entry level) that seems like a nice reel, but as you wind line back on to the reel, the clicking is annoyingly loud.  is there any way to make it less noisy?  thanks.  rap

thought so.  i piddled with it but to no avail.  thanks, m. 

is it doing when a fish runs or just when u reel??    gotta love that sound when u hook up haha my orvis cfo sounds great when they take line..

Let it sing man.  In the near future I am going to get a big lick n pawl for my steelhead. Cant wait to hear the noise that makes.

Rap,
Is this a single pawl type reel?
 The loud click is there to announce "Fish On" So you don't have to.
Thick grease might deaden the sound a bit.
Hardy used to build reels for Orvis. I once ran into a PDF file that showed how to adjust the spring.
Or, take it steelhead fishing and let the fish wear down the pawl.
Or, take a file to the pawl.
