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're usually fully stocked but you caught me on a bad night!
Tuesday night is usually "board meeting" night if you know what I mean. Stop in and have a tasty beverage some Tuesday night after these holidays are over and things get back to normal.
Im sure I will be back soon my kids go through the pork burgers pretty quick. Suzy knows who I am she can help ya. Cant ever turn down a nice cold Busch Light.
Nice to finally meet you tonight. Make sure you tell me who you are again next time you come in. I will probably forget.
Let me know when you are dropping in again and I'll make sure we have more of those beverages around!
