I go by old_rookie because I started fishing when I was 'old' and so being new I was a rookie - but that was a few years ago, so I'm older but still a rookie.

Was trying to fix a reel and someone from SDFish suggested I come here to get some help.

I got the reel working, but had to destroy a screw (salt) to get the handle off.

So now in search of a new screw and handle??

The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

Welcome.  What kind of reel?  We need more info.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
