Reel Repair by Alan Tani

the handle arms that i have a stainless steel, water jet cut.  $10 each plus shipping.  they are a copy of the penn arm.  send a pm!

 Yep, just looked at the listing Jason. The listing says those sloppy blades are made in China. That seller only sells stuff made in China. Buyer beware !!

Alan,
One of my recent video messages here "Dropper Loop for yellowtail" has suddenly started showing thousands of views.
It could just be a glitch, but it might possibly indicate some kind of nefarious use being channeled through there.
If you like, I can delete it, and re-post if it would help.

I have a strip in the middle of the backyard and down the far side of the house .  Usually a 5 minute job including 1 stop to empty the pickup bag !

There's a cool photo!!!!!!!!

Good evening all!

     I know it's not a typical spinning reel, but I'm stumped. I took this reel apart to clean and I for the life of me can't figure out how the anti-reverse works.

      The main gear bushing is smooth, nothing for any kind of dog or alike. I just don't see what the spring does. I'm assuming there is something missing and can't find a schematic. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Jeff

The Mitchell 351 was not an early version of the 350. Rapid then 350 5/1 then 350 then 350A. The 351 is a lefthanded version of the 350, right hand crank. Mitchell made that plate set up for the 350 but engraved 351. If that plate was put on the 351 the writing would be upside down but fully functional with the proper gears for the 351. Mitchell often made mistakes in engraving reels but would let parts slide through as long as they worked as not to lose money.

My mower, hedge trimmer, string trimmer and blower are all battery powered. Hey, I'm in Klownifornia!

Joe your yard is all planters do you even have any grass?

I've talked to the seller/maker. He's working on round 2 and we are discussing what other reels the handle can potentially be modified to fit. Happy ending.

Alan how much do you want for one?
