Default Reel Service..

Terrible tackle tart that I am I seem to have accumulated a selection of Ari Hart reels.

All of them are not museum piece but well used items missing the odd screws etc... I now feel they could all do with a service, does anyone know anyone in the UK who might be able to oblige?

cheers

Martin

This Guy, The Reel Doctor, enjoys a good reputation but I've never use him myself.

First question would be where did you buy them from?
Most suppliers of ari T hart reels would be able to have them serviced for you.
Failing that phone Sportfish Winforton (not Reading) speak to Danny North, make sure thats who you are talking to, and you will get sensible resolution.

A difficult one in the UK Martin, USA/ Holland is your best bet.
Like myself, "Junglecock" on here is also an Ari collector, drop him a PM, he may be able to help you, or steer you in the right direction.

I emailed the reel doctor but never heard a word back..

As to where i got them I'm afraid to say Ebay! But this was back in the mid to late 90's before it became the tat bazzar it is now, I'm almost ashamed to say I picked one up for <£100.

Which models do you have Martin.?
Any Remco's among them, I could show you a profit on your £100.
