I've purchased a handful of reels off of ebay, that were not functioning properly, but with your channel and mystic reel parts, I came out the winner.

Hello Dennis - It's shame that fishing reel had been neglected like that for never being serviced from a few fishing trips or maybe some other reason but in the long run you did a wonderful job to restore it back to working once again for a second chance of fishing . Very Good Video .

I don’t usuaually send one back until I’ve at least diagnosed the problem. Then I take pictures and contact the seller. One seller tried to tell me he would have refunded if I had not opened the reel. Needless to say I sort of blew up. End result was he did refund both cost and shupping and gave me the reel. That was because my pictures proved it could not be repaired. That has happened about 10 times over 300+ purchased on various sites. Great job on this Jigmaster! - Chris

A testament to the U.S. made Penn reels. All my Penn Reels are U.S. made. Don't think I'd buy a Chinese made model either. Great video Dennis!

@2ndChanceTackle Жыл бұрын

Fair enough! Yes - I have seen more problems with the Jigmasters made in China. Different metals used and more issues with those parts breaking or seizing up on the newer models

I can't tell you how many times I've been ripped off on eBay with fishing reels. Description will say "Super clean! Perfect condition!!" And the internals are literally held together by rust.

Unfortunately, that is more common that a rare occurrence. Folks clean the outside and don't service the inside. I guess the buyer beware statement has never been more true. - Dennis
