I have been getting some Salon JC 30 reels back for warranty work because the screws that attach the reel to the reel seat have backed out.  I have been fixing the problem with red loctite. I think blue loctite may be close to what they used in the factory, which apparently, sometimes doesn't hold. I have been able to get the screws back out even with the red loctite, so no worries about that. The Salon JC 30 is probably one of the easiest fishing reels around to work on. If you are all thumbs or gorilla fisted, please don't try to work on your reels. They have a two-year warranty. Send them back to the dealer. If you live near the Chesapeake Bay, I will probably fix it for you. If you are mechanically inclined, please see the attached PDF for a guide to fixing your reel.

Good luck,
