Hi Frank, Arthur (wingnut) said you are 'the guy' for reel repair and I should PM you regarding two reels of mine. The first is a Curado 300 in need of its first maintenance... The second is a two season Calcutta 400 that I dropped in the surf and sand....I'd like you to go through them and do any upgrades (drag washers/bearings, etc) you see fit. If lubrication is something I should specify, I would say Hot Sauce. But I bow to your expertise... If you're into doing this for me, please let me know where to ship. Thanks a lot, Sid Page (sidified)
