0 wallyH Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Hayes' Tackle Plus or you can try calling the manufacturer. I had an abu-garcia reel break. I called them up and for about 10 bucks for the part and shipping I had a new reel in about a week.Wally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Surface Tension Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 You can order replacement parts directly from the reel manufacturer. Or do an on-line search for reel parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Skunked-Rookie Posted August 7, 2004 Author Share Posted August 7, 2004 I have tried calling Mitchell and they refered me to some places that don't have the parts or know where to find them. The reel is older and French made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Skunked-Rookie Posted August 14, 2004 Author Share Posted August 14, 2004 It is a Mitchell 470,,, I don't know the yr it was made. When I 1st lost the drag knob I did a search and actually found some place that had it where I could of ordered it. It was one of my 1st searches and I figured,,, "If I can find it that quick and easy I'll have no problem finding one later" so I planned on shopping around. Now I can't find that site or any other place that carries the part for the life of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
