My Dam Quick 1001 reel have a loose bail near the roller (see 3 pics where it's moving ) Can I fix it by punch in the hole ( see pic ) or I need a new bail .Try to upload a video but it won't take it

It is designed to move a little bit.  Otherwise if too rigid, the bail would not work properly.

But you can try to tighten it by impacting it with a punch.

If you mess it up, I have bails.
