I am wondering where a good place to service my reels this winter I have a shimano cte700 and a st croix ac300a. Nothing is wrong with them I would just like them oiled and greased and maybe have the drages upgraded. I live in Minnesota, is there someone close to bring them to or send them to I don't like to work on my own stuff? Thank Jayson

You can send them Diretly to Shimano in California and they will do it for $30.00/reel for bait casters. You can get the info on the web page. There Customer Service number is 1-877-577-0600.

Richard Schmitz on this website is who I would recommend. He is fantastic and super knowledgeable. He goes by pikemaster on here.

Email me at [email protected]
I will be at the MN Musky Show this year, so you can drop them off at the show or mail them to me and I can return them at the show. I get $24.00 a reel to Detail, Tune and Relube, also I can do upgrades like Drags, Bearings and Tuning Upgrades, call me for details.

Shimano probably wont work on the St Croix since its basicly a Daiwa..
I send mine to Pikemaster..
He'll work on both of those brands, gets me my reels back pretty quick, and they come back cleaner/nicer than I can get them myself..
He's also re-assembled some reels for me I shouldn't have taken apart myself..
Good price too..
Good luck
