I have searched for old threads on the subject but came up empty. Does anybody have any recommendations? I live Allyn.

Its a Penn 268 long beach and it is clunking/ratcheting and doesn't want to reel when there is about 200 ft of line out. Thank you for any replies.

Joe

Are you stuck on using a local source?

If not, there is a guy down in OR that does absolutely stellar work. His name is John Strenk. He goes by The Reel Tech. You can find his website here-----> TheReelTech.com

If you want to try to fix the reel yourself do a bing search for Alan tani. He has a very informational site on reel repair.
