from what i can tell, yes and no. if you're using larger line then you can use a non-offset eye. but for smaller line the eye of offset as per the manual instructions which are still pretty vague

I have a Zebco 33 reel. No one on this site can tell me how to get the front cover off. The only way i know to get it off, is by putting it in my 20 ton press and crushing it. Who ever designed this reel should be shot. If the reel jams on the boat, just throw it in the water. It is not user friendly.

Your reel has pickup pins on the spool that will guide the line onto the spool when you reel in. Try holding gentle tension on the slack line just above your reel and start reeling in. If this does not work then remove the top cover of the reel and look to see if the line is tangled up on the inside around the center shaft underneath the pickup pin cover. if this is the case, simply unscrew the pickup pin cover from the center shaft. It will be on the tight. Remove the tangled line and reassemble.

Try it and see. It's hard to see ANY line while it's in the water.

That would depend on the rod, but usually either the front part of the hand grip can be unscrewed, or there is a screw under the rod that will loosen it.

Carefully lube and let set overnight then try to open it .If that doesn't work take it to a reel repair shop. some of them will do it for free My answers are short and sweet. Common sense mostly.

I am assuming you know at least something about fishing with a baitcast reel. If you do not, make sure you release the thumb button when you cast. Chances are your line is either tangled or dirty on the inside. Also, the longer the line sits on the spool, the "curlier" it becomes, making it more difficult to get a good cast. I would suggest replacing your line. If that doesn't help, then its possible that the release pin isn't releasing when the button is released. If this is the case, it is probably time for a new reel. Zebco 33's are inexpensive, and not really worth the trouble to try and repair- better to just invest in a new one.
