Mike, what is your turn around time?

Im thinking of dropping mine off at Shimano but not sure if shimano do the deep cleaning like flush the bearing and all. I had them do my Calcutta and curado D before but that was long time ago.

I had one 50e that need some cleaning but if I have to send to Mike might as well send all 3 at once to save some shipping.

I’d be careful with Shimano’s reel cleaning service, I’ve heard they will give you a completely different reel sometimes.

Mike did 1/2 a dozen of mine and I am a happy camper

I'm catching up after the holidays. Probably about 3 weeks on new arrivals. If you have a deadline for a trip or something let me know and I'll try to schedule it in.

Oiled a couple reels before heading out the other day in the cold.....guess it was too cold...they froze solid....had to dip em in lake.  May have to get em done right now.
