Title: Castaic 200
Post by: Brendan on March 07, 2011, 02:23:27 AM
     Does anyone know what it takes to get the spool out of one of these? I broke it down to the point where I usually have the spool in my hand, but for whatever reason it wasn't working out.

Thanks in advance, Brendan.

it's stuck. lean on it a little more.  watch your fingers!  it will come out.  use chopsticks and pry it out if you have to.

Thanks Allan, I will try a little more force tomorrow. I was at the point were it felt like something was going to break so I wanted to check if this reel required something a little different to get it apart.
Thanks again, Brendan.

Sounds Just like Alan.  If something doesn't come apart, get bigger chopsticks ;D Dom
