Fishing Reel Repair?

Postby sunnylab » Mon Feb 20, 2006 3:47 pm

does anybody know where i can send some older reels for repair?

I have prob 8 reels that need a basic oiling/cleaning. I have some
new reels that i will be using this year. but i would like to give my old
ones to somebody to use. i don't want to give them a broken
reel. so i would like to get these cleaned/fixed.

any suggestions?

I have never personally used them but I have heard good things from other bass fishing sites.

Mike Michels

Good guy and does very good work. Fizes both reels and rods. He has several places in the metro areas where he picks up dropped off reels. He has done several reels for me. He charges a fair price.

lipsplitter,

Mike Michels is the tackle doctor. Guess I should have mentioned that.

ditto on Mike Michels. I've dropped several reels by his place in Florence and he knows his stuff....

I have dropped my reels off at the Mean Mallard, and he picks them up there. He does a great job.
