Another option to release a stuck spool- remove the cover plate where the release lever is located and spray some saltex or even warm water into the cavity then gently tap the end on the spindle with the butt of a screwdriver while holding the release lever in the release position and the reel off the work surface slightly. This works as my Redington has frozen up a couple of times when I got lazy. A little sewing machine oil or other light oil will keep it from happening as often. Ron
