I have an Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C3 (actually, I have three) on which the anti-reverse is not working properly. It is a bit "loose". There is some backwards play in the reel, kind of like those spinning reels that have a four-point or eight-point anti reverse. You know, where it always "backs up" to the stopping point.
I suspect that the anti-reverse bearing is bad. Is that an easy fix, or am I better off just getting a new reel? Where would one even get a bearing to fix it (assuming that is in fact the problem)?
Any one have any insight and can help me out? I hope I described the problem clearly...

We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha
motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor, wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will
want for this boat? Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke
Mariner motor) I will appreciate any help with these questions.
I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage. Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.
Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
