Thanks!

U looking for parts for it? Lots of times you can use parts off a lot of other Abu reels.

Whats wrong with it?

mikecc carries a lot of stock Abu parts that are know to wear/loss.

Yeh, I'm looking for a parts beyotch for the reel to canabilize as needed. I blew out the drive side plate which I can replace but there are other wear & tear items happening. Right now it's bandaged together as half a Mag Elite and half a Big Game - I should take a pic for grins and giggles

Yeh but now my 2 favorite reels are morphed into one

It's caught more than a few fish, looks like it was dragged along the canal by it's handle and had more pochmarks than Manuel Noriega's face....

I thought he was dead - had to look it up and guess he's still alive...
