I have a collection(4-5) of 10000C reels in not 100% working order.

You can make me an offer.

Hi Ray .What spares/reels are you looking for .Anything specific? .I may have noted elsewhere that you were looking for a dual-paddle-handle. If al else fails you could resort to Omoto for certain spares which may be interchangeable.

Thanks for the response.

Im specifically looking for stars, double paddle handles and gears. Is there anyone local I can get this from, is omoto spares available in cape town somewhere perhaps?

 

[kitefisher]

I got this info from a quicks earch on Sealine.Apparently Adrenalin fishing in Brackenfell distributes/stocks them.

Silly question,are these reels that have 'power-handles' that you want to convert to paddle? Lastly insofar as star's go you may find plenty in the UK as it is not uncommon for the casting fraternity there to convert the star-drag knob to a round 'dial-type' starless-drag-knob.

I have many power handles and a few double paddles as well.
I have purchased quite a bit from overseas but I do know theres plenty laying around not being used locally and I purchase them to mod and customize my own reels.

That's basically why im looking for them locally.

Terrible disease to have,the one mentioned above. I will check asap if spares like the star and handles are interchangeable between Omoto and Abu in 4k,5k and 6k sizes.

 

[Ray11]

its really terrible I tell you.
Die budget vlieg. Thanks for all the help though.

@ Ray........I noticed you said looking for those spares in & around Cape Town area, though if you really struggling, then send fellow SEALINER FRITZABU a PM with yr request......he is an avid ABU collector......& might just be able to help & or advice. He is in Pretoria though.....but really worth calling in for assistance.
Good luck.

thanks for the response and will do.
