i have a pq that my thumb slipped off during a cast, now the drag will not work. i tighten it down and it is still loose. any ideas on how to repair it? i picked it up a couple of yrs ago with a pq rod for 50$ on black friday. i will try the repair myself, i cant see putting 20$ in a 50$ reel. that is what it would cost minimum to sen it to bps.if i fail i will use it for spare parts for my other pq. once again this is why i will not buy bps reels again, i know i rant about how such a big outfitdoes not have an in store repair facility. they give u the name of another sporting goods store when u ask about repairs, u call them and they tell u they cant repair bps reels. does that just sound wrong to u.
