I have a Shakespeare baitcaster that seems to be alot like the Abu Garcia C3's or C4's. The problem is it seems like the gears, or whatever drives the reel to reel up the line, are slipping. It started out just happening once in awhile but now it pretty much won't reel at all. Is this something I can fix or should I bring it somewhere to be looked at? I don't know much about baitcasters to begin with and I bought this one used so I don't have a manual for it. It says it has a one way clutch on it. Where would that be located? I thought maybe that would be the problem. Thanks for any advice/help anyone can give.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
