Title: Chipped Squidder 140 spool
Post by: phishphood on July 31, 2021, 01:31:19 AM
Is a chipped spool useable for anyone? Came across it and wanted to check before binning it.

If the chip isn't to bad it can always be filled with epoxy & filed & sanded. For a user reel it's function before looks.     Rudy

Ooh.  Now that's in a bad place.  It will catch the line and consume it.

Wompus send me a PM with your address and I'll let you know when it gets shipped. Fair warning it might be a bit...
