Title: Handy 8 in 1 tool
Post by: MikeS51 on April 06, 2016, 12:02:35 PM
Thanks to this site (I've been lurking for years) I've built up the confidence to open up pretty much any reel. I have all the basic tools but this one has made life even easier! I picked it up from the Jigging World Booth 2 years ago at the saltwater expo in Rhode Island. Interestingly I don't see it listed on their website now  ???. Just thought I would share a tool that I think many of you might like.

That's where I got mine a few years ago, the wrench covers most sizes & types we run across.

Just checked her site and looks like you're right!

A great tool for less than 8 bucks.

I now see the correct name is "8 in 1 Reel Tool"
