for older models (read cheaper), which brand has decent spare parts available ala Mystic; i like Shimano, but understand parts are hit & miss; who stocks most of the Dawia parts?
which others are reliable & worth rebuilding-- thanks
southwest parts in dallas, tx.
ABU/Zebco Cardinal, Dam Quick and Mitchell spinner parts are fairly easy to find if you look in the right places. Most of the other older spinning reels are somewhat difficult to locate parts for. One usually ends up having to find a donor reel for most of those.
