Spares for reels generally are not carried in tackle shops, but may be ordered by the shop for you. I would advise that you take the part number, or the reel back to the shop where you bought it, and they will order a replacement for you.

Check out blakdogtackle in the uk, very nice guy and very reasonable, both for prices and shipping. If you can't find the part on his site ring them and he should be able to look after you

What parts/reel are you looking for? Have you tried a post in the For Sale/Wanted Forum?

Also, what's the name of the Dutchman down in Limerick that does a good job servicing/repairing reels?

Here you go if Blakdog dont have what you need I am sure these guys will. I bought some parts last week for an old Mitchell 306 (1977) that I am restoring last week and they shipped the next day.

That's the ticket. One of the lads used him last year to service/repair some reels, gave good reports on him.

If you contact one of the highly rated sellers on eBay they will most likely sort you out.
