seal broke Stradic?

Took my daughter out to Race Point Thursday night. While I was setting up a sand spike she took her first cast and began shouting she had one. I turned around to see her holding on for all she was worth with the line tearing out. Then about a 30" fish(I assume it was a bluefish) jumped out of the water and landed right in the mouth of a seal! Then the line really started tearing out. The line eventually broke at the knot. She is not so crazy about seals anymore of which I now noticed were all up and down the beach. My question now is about the Shimano Stradic she was using which is now very difficult to turn. Does it likely have a bent shaft? Any suggestions on a local for repairs?

Thanks
