Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Hey Fellas,, Thanks for the comments and visiting my site!!
I'll tell you,, from my point of view,, it's a lot easier to fix reels than build tutorials,, !!! LOL My hats off to those that do them regularly!! I think my web guy wanted to fire ME after this one..
I'll try and get a few pictures of the custom rods I build posted here soon.. Thanks again.. Greg

If the reel is important to you, it's worth fixing. If the reel catches fish, it's worth fixing. And that is why we enjoy working on reels so much...it means something to someone.
