Super Tuning
Our super tuning service is the same as our regular service. We believe every reel we get should be done the same way "correctly". Doing it right isn't any harder it just feels better. We offer #7 Orange Seal Bearing as upgrades at an additional price. We also offer Carbontex drag washers as a great upgrade to stop those lunkers.
Reel Repair
Reel repair pricing: service cost plus fishing reel parts if required.
All repairs will be done as quickly as possible. we have a large parts inventory, but due to the vast number of fishing reels on the market we may not have your exact part at the time of service. These parts will be ordered as soon as possible to get you fishing.
Salt-X
treatment will be used on all reels used in saltwater. Salt-X counteracts Chloride salts by attacking, disolving, deactivating, and removing salt water deposits from the surfaces of your reels.
Expedited service
Sometimes you need your reel repair faster due to unforeseen circumstances. For double service rate per reel we can expedite it for you. Expedite turn around is approximately a week with parts availability.
*Wait time may take longer if parts need to be ordered.
Estimate charge
Our time is just as valuable as yours. If an estimate is required before service a $20.00 charge per reel will be required before estimate. If service is done after the estimate the estimate charge will be applied to service.
Reassembling fee
Sometimes the best plans don't work out and that simple repair left you scratching your head with a ziplock bag full of parts. Seeing we have to reassemble your reel to figure out why you took it apart in the first place, we need to charge $10.00 to cover the extra step of repairing it and to make sure all the parts are there.
Excessively dirty
Reels will be charged an additional $10.00 per reel for excessively dirty reels or reels that have been recovered from the bottom of the lake.
Minimum Service Fee
There is a $20.00 minimum fee on all repairs. This includes bail spring replacement and pawls or when no service is required.
Abu Garcia Anti-Reverse Bearings $10.00 Installed (these bearings need to be pressed in). We also carry bearing and gear upgrades for many reels.
Custom Power Handles
We machine our handles out when replacing a stock handle with a thicker one. This helps prevent stripping the treads of the handle shaft and nut by giving you an extra couple or threads. This little trick can save you time and money in the long run. We can machine your handle for a small fee and keep you on the water longer.
Line Winding
We carry a variety of popular fishing lines so we can put your favorite line on your reel for just the cost of the line. If you supply the line there is a $5.00 charge per reel.
Reversing the line on reels is a great way to save money, most of the line that is spooled on a reel is never used. We can reverse the line on your reels for $10.00 per spool.
Line spin is a very common problem we see. if you have a week drag or a drag that is intermittent it may be the line spinning on the spool. We can fix this by spooling your line off and adding backing then respool your line back on for $5.00
Return Shipping
Our preferred method of shipping is USPS Priority, cost for the first reel or tip up is $15.50 and $2.00 for each additional reel. Shipping charges may change due to shipping cost inflation.
UPS shipping is available at an additional cost based on package and destination.
Payment
We accept cash and checks along with all major credit cards and PayPal.
