Reel Parts

[BassGeek54]

Hey guys does anyone have some good resources for reel parts. I have a BPS Extreme reel that I like...I know it is not a high end reel but it is good, I am looking for the magnets that are in the braking system. As an assembly it looks pretty good but one of the magnets is a little corroded and I would like to replace it. It is very hard to find these...can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried calling Bass Pro?

Duh...I should have thought of that...I will let you know if that works out.

If it doesn't workout I have an extreme that I used for parts and still have the magnets. I'd give you some if you still need them.

hawghunters...you are awesome. Let me check with BPS tomorrow and if I cannot get them from there I will contact you, but I insist on paying you something for it...I actually only need 1 the other ones look OK. Thank you very much.

I know basspro used to do reel repair and servicing.

Hey I want to thank you guys. I called my local BPS and they gave me the number for the Reel Repair Service which I think maybe in Missouri. I called them up, gave them the model number and told them what i needed and in less that 5 seconds they told me the cost (a whopping 53 cents each) and they set me with an account and have them on the way to me. I kind of feel like an idiot for not thinking of calling them first -- you guys are the best. Thank you very much! :beer:

BassGeek,
Glad it worked out by calling Basspro!

Thanks Jim. I have been pretty AWOL for a while...lot of wacky stuff going on around here with an addition and moving the mother-in-law in but I hope to be back participating on the site on a more regular basis soon. It is so awesome that all of you guys are always around to help.

Thanks for everything.
