My go to reel is the old Quantum 1310 mgc . I have about 8-10 of them . Parts are hard to find and I now found a guy in New Hampshire who stocks parts . Worm gear and pawls just wear out . I can't even put film in a camera , so I'm screwed . I spoke to the guy at security , not much help ...

There used to be a cop that did it. I think it was called K&M rod/reel repair, but don't know if he still does it. Same guy that runs the Thursday night dogfights at the Colfax landing.

ETA: His name is Keith Delaney.

I posted your question on the Cenla Hunter and Fisherman board on facebook. I will let you know if anyone responds. There was a guy the adv. on there, but I think it was the guy from Gardner.

Just talked to the guy at security and he fixes them for about $20.00 a reel depending on whats wrong with it.

Same for older lews. I got tired of it and moved on to low price reels that i do not feel bad about tossing when done.
