This TwinPower had previously been serviced. Some issues with the previous work have caused a few problems. A number of areas had not been looked at so corrosionhads occurred, some parts were installed backwards, and the body seal wasn't seated correctly so it was destroyed upon assembly. Amateurs should stay away from the big boy jobs. #reelservicesaustralia

Mr A strikes again and again. After discussions today with a client, BCF Innaloo is recommending him as being "really good". Ummmmm....NO After the dozens and dozens of repairs of his so-called servicing, I've had to complete, the multiple FB group complaints, and the bad reviews he gets about poor and unethical workmanship, I can absolutely say he is really bad at what he does. His work ethic is everything I am against, as I have said time and time again in previous posts. It makes me mad to think someone with those poor morals can operate. If he did the right thing, I would have no problems with him at all. Obviously, I can't name names for legal reasons. Grrrrrr...angry...rant over. #reelservicesaustralia

My customer previously had this Stella serviced via a tackle shop. I found a few issues. The body seal was missing, which allowed a reasonable amount of water to access the reel. They did try to use grease as a 'seal', but it was the wrong type, and it did nothing. There were a number of areas also that had not been opened, so nothing had been done to help limit water entry or prevent corrosion. Many people who service reels will do it their own way. To some, a service is quick, involving minimal work, and to others, it's a drawn out time consuming process. I prefer the latter. #reelservicesaustralia

This boar was about 80kg. There were about 100+ pigs on the paddock, a few bigger, most smaller. Plus, numerous foxes, cats, rabbits, and the odd red and grey kangaroo, with emus during the day. The wildlife on what looks to be a dry barren area of land is incredible. The big worry is the insane number of feral animals. The farmer starts seeding soon, and these things are going to be a nightmare when the crops start to grow. A much bigger effort is needed to reduce the numbers of these pests. They'll never be fully controlled, but we can only do what we can to help out our primary producers. #reelservicesaustralia

One of 10 ferals out of the equation. Tens of thousands more to go. Given the size of WA, it will be impossible to get rid of them all. Shooters just need to keep plugging away at them to help try and minimise the devastating effect these things have. If some of the new firearm laws are put thru by our incompetent government, then its highly possible feral numbers are going to escalate well out of control of anyone. #reelservicesaustralia

⭐️🎣⭐️🎣⭐️BIG NEWS JUST IN⭐️🎣⭐️🎣⭐️ After a species misidentification by another team, or team BLACK PEARL, has jumped up to 3rd place overall in the WA Open held in Jurien Bay. This means we have won an invite to the Offshore World Championships in Costa Rica. I probably wont be able to attend due to the cost of it but at least we made it. But, I'm willing to take sponsorships to get there 😉 #reelservicesaustralia

When you buy aftermarket handle assemblies, make sure you dismantle them, lubricate, and loctite all relevant components. Straight out of the box the bearings corrode quickly, and I've had the nut holding the handle together come undone whilst in use. If you purchase these from me, I do all of this for you before the handles leave the workshop. #reelservicesaustralia

Old school SW-A Stella. Very badly corroded, with some parts seized into position, badly worn gears, and parts NLA. Not in this instance, but I never understood why, and this is so very, very common place, people LOVE a particular reel (it's their absolute favourite to use) but they never get it serviced, or have it serviced at regular intervals over its life. You service your car and outboard each year. Why not a reel, even if its every 2, 3 or 4 years. Sometimes 1 good propper service will last 5 or more years. So when it fails catastrophically, these individuals get upset, but its not the reels fault, its 100% the fault of the owner for failing to maintain it. Then they carry on because parts are not available for such an old reel, but if that reel had been looked after, it would easily have lasted another 15 years. Morning rant over. #reelservicesaustralia

It is important to limit the amount of water contact reels have on a boat. Spin reels will keep the water trapped inside the body, while most overheads can be flushed with a lot of fresh water. Either way, the salt will eventually cause problems. Just remember, if your reel says it has a body seal, it is common place for water to be pushed around it at high pressure. #lrcustombuiltrodsandreelservicing
