Reel Repair

I’m sure this is in the wrong area, but I’m hoping a bunch of folks will see this. I have a Swedish made Abu-Garcia spinning reel that needs repair and the gentleman I have taken them to in the past recently passed away. Does anyone have a good repairman they could recommend?

PM if you would like. Thanks.

There’s a guy named Earl Parker I think that does reel repair. Call sportsman’s in provo and they should have his contact information.

Earl Parker is the guy who recently died.

I could take a look at it for you. I don’t do this as a business but I have fixed a bunch of spinning and casting reels for my friends. you can pm me if you would like. later chuck

Earl Parker is the guy who recently died.

Sorry to hear that. I picked up some parts from him less than a year ago. I had a nice chat with him then and I got help from him on several occasions over the years.

have you tried calling Abu Garcia and asking them? I think they do repair themselves or may have a certified repair person
