    Bearing stuck on spool post problem.

    Yep. Ordered one as well and picked up a can or Free All for future issues. That bearing is not moving. It’s back in the transmission fluid acetone soak. Have used that Triton, and yes it’s a good reel for the money. I know it’s never been opened up and curious of what it’s like inside after...

    Bearing stuck on spool post problem.

    I grew up down the block from that depot. My friends and I probably pelted your truck and the buses with snowballs back in the day.(The early eighties). The block beteeen the depot and the bus lot was great for us. Not much car traffic, great for playing catch, touch football, wiffle ball...

    Bearing stuck on spool post problem.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Will pick up Free All on the way home and try that first. I have a little space to get behind the bearing. As you can see in the pic. Small gear is still on shaft behind it. Heat gun as a back up plan.

    Bearing stuck on spool post problem.

    Took apart my Newelll 220 reel and can’t get the bearing off the post. Soaked it in WD40 and still unable to get it to loosen. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Was wondering what those boats were doing. I tried searching for info and couldn’t find anything relevant. Do you know the scope of what they are doing? Is that big work barge with the cable reel part of it also?

    I’ve seen in some earlier posts your recommendation of this reel. Are you doing anything to it to prevent/ slow down salt corrosion? The SV TW models are designed for saltwater. Interested in getting a 150P for fluke. Any information or thoughts would be appreciated.
