Hello Alan,

I have been reading your post for quite some time now and decided to join as a member last night.

I own and operate a small reel repair business in Southern Illinois under the name "Russell's Reel Service". I mainly cater to the "bass guys" using baitcasters by doing bearing upgrades, gear conversions, drag upgrades, Hypertuning and general service and repair but have always had an interest in the "bigger stuff" that you work on. With the way you present information and explain different techniques I have learned more about reels and the particular ways they function, especially drags and bearings, than I have from any other source in my 30+ years of working on reels. Thanks for all the information and if I can be of assistance to you or any other members please feel free to give me a call at the shop 618-252-0760 or e-mail russellsreels@hotmail.com.
