Hi Fred,
Happy holidays.

I need a screw for a DQ 330 side plate. It's the short screw that holds the side plate to the frame at the tail end. There are two on the reel, one on each side, I only need one.

Please PM me with your address and price. I'll mail cash.

Also what's your parts situation for the DQ 550?

Regards,
OR

Plenty of parts (all) for 550's.

Just PM your mailing info to mail on Thursday this screw.  N/C.

OK, Eric — got it addressed and ready to go to the Post Office on Thursday.

If there is anything else you need — just let me know.

Best, Fred

Quote from: jgp12000 on December 31, 2024, 09:05:55 PMTom I wanna see some Rogue fish pictures,I read all the features sounds like it was quite innovative back then.

That Rogue reel should be made today.  The materials, features, and quality are all top shelf —- and manufactured by hand by angler/machinists who fished primarily the Pacific Northwest for Salmon, Steelhead, and Trout.

I know that Tom will go through it professionally, and give us a great report on it.

No better person to get this reel.

Best, Fred

I absolutely plan on doing a complete service & tutorial on that reel for anyone's benefit that is fortunate enough to have or acquire one of those cool & interesting examples!  :D
Love those open face spinning reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco Cardinals)

I think they were originally kind of a satin black finish. At least a couple of good photos of barely used examples I've seen appear to be satin, not rough or wrinkled.

I had a blonde moment,keep in mind this is my 1st Mini-Mite. I received the reel from Fred yesterday & was checking it out,I kept hearing a noise like the rotor was hitting something? I always thought that little protrusion on the reel stem makes the reel look soooo cool...It trips the bail  ;D

Amazingly the Rogue showed up at my door already today.  :o  That was sure quick! A big thanks again to the incognito Ohana "members of questionable standing"  ;D  who opted to award/reward me with this cool 😎 gift!  :al

I opened it up and took an peek inside. Quite a unique design. This is going to be a complicated & tedious dis & re assemble. Lots of little screws, nuts and pins to remove & reinstall, especially without any sort of guide to go by.  :o  I think the original paint was probably satin. Here's a couple of fresh pics.

Tommy and Fred - I am really excited to watch the Rogue rebuild/resto.  It looks fascinating.  I don't want to put any pressure on Tommy who is always generous with info; but maybe this neat reel deserves it's own thread so we can watch? - john

It will be a slow & precise process with lots of photos along the way, don't want to screw something up or misplace a part. I can already tell it's not like anything I've ever dug into before.  ;)  Y'all be patient now.  ;D 

PS: I was kind of hoping Greg would tear into his first.  ;D  Just kidding, of course.  :)
