Reel Repair?

[Basseyes]

I have a Abu Garcia Cardinal C3 that's the straight handled black model from the mid 80's and I need both bail springs. Any good reel repair shops in the cities that could get those for me? It's been a great reel and I'd hate to have to get rid of it.

Thanks

Basseyes,

Parts for reels as old as the C3 will be very hard to find in shops. Instead, visit the Abu Garcia website. There you'll find schematics, part numbers, etc. A quick call to the parts department and you'll get what you need in a couple of days. Swapping springs is a piece of cake. You can do this quickly, easily, and cheaply.

Thanks.

I would call Pure Fishing. They are great to work with and more than likely have all the parts you will need.
