Dear Board,
I just wanted to say hello and say that I'm lucky I stumbled upon this site.
When I was younger I maintained and repaired my reels, whether they were conventional, fly, or spinning. I still have reels that I use that are well over 40 years old, mostly Abu's, Mitchell's and Penn's but I have a Daiwa or two scattering in the mix. I've bought newer reels over the years but I have a hard time parting with anything that still works so I find myself going back to the old faithful reels.
I'm hoping I can find help here when I run into a problem with one of my reels and I look forward to reading, learning, and seeing how other people keep their older gear in tip-top shape.
Regards,
Tim Murphy
