Greetings from Roseville! Two quick questions....

[GrizzlyCA]

Everyone, thank you for the warm welcome! I got my reels over to Alan. I think I am set now. Now to figure out how I can get more time fishing!

[GrizzlyCA]

i'm working on reels, but it's pretty hectic.  someone at fisherman's warehouse should still have parts!

quinn, it was great talking to you.  let me know what you want to do with those reels!!!

Alan, thank you so much! I shipped them to you last week and will message you. I can stop by and pick up when ready. Thank you so so much for a great and educational conversation! you just got me started!!! LOL

Sssssssup, Quinn! You know my friends, the Neeley's from
Roseville? I know, stupid question. I was gonna say if you store those high quality reels for awhile, make sure there's no water inside.

To answer your question about storage (Alan has already probably done so): Store them after a complete service!

The time to discover your reel has saltwater in a bad place (or did) is not after a year in the garage when you pull them out to go Long Range again. During the trip and when rinsing off the reels is where some salt gets deeper inside. Don't let it do its worst for months.

Getting them serviced when you get home means they are gtg for unlimited storage. More than one guy has sent them in to Alan a year from getting back from a trip and right before the next one and then discovering serious issues from neglect that should've been addressed sooner.

If the reels were fully serviced after the trip then when the next one comes around just a little oil here and there in the standard trouble spots on the outside (handle, etc) and you are ready to fish.
