Hi Richard, I'm looking for a power handle for a pluton, 8x5mm same as luna. I see you have sold some in the post from this forum. Do you still do them and what are the details, swept, Eva, length etc. There's so much junk out there and few suppliers up here north of the border. Thanks

I don't I have any for that Reel.
Go to Jigging World on line they have some nice Powers Handles.

Richard,

If i wanted to replace the 5:1:1 gears in my 401D with the 5:8:1 gears used in a 301D, what parts would I need to order from shimano?

I remember this being discussed before but cannot find the post. Thank you in advance

Main Gear #4572 $13.81
Pinion Gear #4574 $13.50
Shipping $10.00
I would also replace stock fiber drag washers
With a set of Carbontex from SmoothDrags
$13.00
Good Luck

Thanks Richard. Another question: what are your thoughts on a Komodo SS 463 PLX as an all purpose reel? Not looking to burn blades with it mostly jerkbaits, cranks, and tubes with the occasional use of 9s and 10s

Hi there just pulled the trigger on a shimano Tranx 301a online, I have not seen it in person, but it was a really good sale so kinda of an impulse buy, How does it compare to size and palming to an nacl 51 I am not a fan of bigger reels and the 51 is perfect size for me, from what I can tell they are pretty close so I am hoping it is similar in size thanks for your input

I have a Calcutta 400D line guide that froze up last fall fishing. The line guide still moves back and forth but skips once in awhile or the movement isn't smooth. Would this be the line guide prawl or the worm shaft or ???
Also, any idea on cost if I sent this to you for cleaning and repair? I am in no major hurry to get it repaired as its a backup reel but was hoping to have returned by August/September.
PM is fine or reply here. Thanks,
Paul

I like the Trinidad handle on the Tranx H G. However, it seems to loosen up after a day of casting, and I need to retighten down the nut. This happens even though the keeper ring is on and should be holding the nut in place. Do you have this problem? Any ideas about a fix?
Thanks

Yes I see that a lot
I will shim the Handle opening with aluminum shims made from a beer can.
Then use Red Lock Tight on the threads.

So to get a reel serviced, we just need to send you the reels with a note and return address? What if parts need to be fixed? And will you call us and tell you what to send for payment?

Richard, what is your address? I have an original toro winch 60 I’d like gears changed for. I also have an original toro 60 hs that has always felt “Grindy”. I’ve been told the factory grease in that reel was garbage but haven’t had it looked at because it annoys me so much I don’t use it. Was that a common problem with that model, anything you can go for it? Thanks!

Just want to double check, before sending you some reels this week, if I would still be able to pick up at the Minnesota Muskie Expo.

Thanks
