Default Thanks

Roggie is a name I have'nt heard in a while and was trying to remember when I posted. Thanks, both for the info and bearing with me posting on the archery sight instead of fishing.

If he's short for a part, let me know what it is as I might be able to help.

I LOVE BOTH MITCHELL 300 & 400/A Models!!!

Mail it to Trever at the Reel Doctor he will get it running like a champ , and clean it up for you . Hes rates are very resonable . Hell he will even rebuild it if you wanted .

Yes he did retire. There is a fellow who fixes reels just north of Calgary but I'm not sure who he is. I think he is also an authorized Minn Kota repair depot so you might be able to find him on their web site. Best of luck. Very good reel and worth fixing. Rick.

Thats what I thought. A guy from Airdrie took over his business. Cant remember the name though(and have ordered parts from him). Seem to recall its a small engine repair business as well. Guess Ill have to look it up and post it.

I would'nt deal with a guy that has no time for you!

Emailed about a part for my Aqua Vu to enable using the dual camera function. I believe it was late last summer/early fall.

Received an email a few days later to call ("if I was serious"). Took the time to answer the email but not the question. So I called and was put on hold shortly after calling and waited for a half hour(forgot about me). Hung up and called back. He apologized(good on that). But did not seem to serious about helping me. I was told by aqua vu that I would have to deal with him after enquiring about the next nearest repair shop(including the states). So I wont be buying aqua vu in the future either.

I now have 3 marcums (2 new 825's this winter) Much better choice - Thanks ReelDoctor!
