Clicking on my mirage drive? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Every once in a while, not all the time. I will get a click at the end of my stroke on the left side, just about 1/2 inch until my flipper would hit the hull. It will happen no matter how hard/slow/fast/gentle I'm peddling
(Opening paragraph to a sex novel?)

I pulled it out, and have tried to repeat the noise while out of the water, and the closest I got was maybe noticing one of the teeth making contact ever so slightly with the chain. It's hard to explain, but it seems like for that one part of the stroke, the sprocket and chain are not lined up entirely. It will happen for a little while, then stop.

Something I should bring in for service, or is it a simple fix with minor adjustments?

I have the same thing happen to me from time to time, can't figure out what it is.

Here's some free advise.....Don't mention the following in any post or HTBO will come out and play

flipper
anything related to size
stroke
sex
novel(cuz I'm sure he likes novels and spanish novelas)
pulling it out
teeth making contact

Check the tension on the cables, if they are too loose the pedals can move side to side causing that kind of noise.
