Abu Garcia Revo Spinning Reel / Fixing Bail Connection

[@kostalakis]

I was pulling my hair out trying to get the bail to work again and then I pulled up your video and viola. It was exactly what I was looking for and your explanation and calm soothing voice and excellent video got ge my reel back . I can't thank you enough for taking the time to put up an excellent video. Thank you so much.

[@jamieu]

Wow, thanks for the wonderful feedback Gus! So glad it was helpful for you.

[@cathykennedy1944]

YOU SAVED MY REEL!!!!! I was about to quit when I found your video! you explained it perfectly and I was able to fix it! THANK YOU!!!!!

[@jessicalealmansilla2785]

No tengo palabras para agradecer tu trabajo. Llevaba más de dos horas tratando de armar algo que ni siquiera sabía cómo estaba inicialmente, porque las piezas saltaron por un resorte que las empujó. El manual de despiece tampoco me servía mucho, pero encontré tu video y me salvó la vida!!!!!! Te envío un gran abrazo desde Temuco, Chile 🇨🇱

[@MarkCahill]

Thanks! A reel lifesaver! Was sitting amidst the pile of parts and now 20 minutes later I am ready to fish again.

[@jamieu]

Sweet Mark! Only instructional video I have ever posted and every couple weeks or so i get a comment that it help someone out and that feels great. Happy fishing man!

[@brimis820]

Without this video I wouldn't have gotten my Revo Inshore 40 in working order. The bail was sticking so I removed it and the bail trip bar fell off. I only know it's called a bail trip bar because I have the schematic which is no help putting it back in place, clueless. With your expert video the reel is now working fine. I just want to add anyone attempting this clear a large working area because the bail spring bushing and bail trip bar will pop off and you will be on your hands and knees looking for them and don't forget to cover the vent! Thanks man.

[@majobismusic]

I just replaced the broken plastic part between the screws on my Cardinal reel and couldn't figure out why the bale wasn't working correctly. Now I know! Thank you for making this video!

[@kevinclement9147]

Thank you!!! I stumbled over my brand new reel in the boat and displaced the bail mechanisms and with the help of this perfect video, I got I back together and working perfectly again. Well done

[@jamieu]

Awesome Kevin! Thanks

[@markb3129]

Thanks for the video, same thing happened to me but lost the metal part. Finally found a place to order the part, then couldn't figure out how to reassemble it. KZbin DIY'rs are the best✌

[@OrtnerJeffrey]

Where did you find that part?

[@markb3129]

@@OrtnerJeffrey I just serched on EBay with the name and model of the reel for parts. If I can find the place where I ordered it from I will let you know. I ordered two because that's about the only piece that wears out or gets lost when you take apart to clean, which was my case. LoL!!!✌🏻

[@PolarBearMan33]

Thank you much brother man!! Just bought another pole and I fixed my old setup thanks to you and I'll have 2 poles hopefully by this weekend for my walleye fishing trip! Cheers!!

[@michaelo6124]

Thanks you helped me lots! I was trying and trying , all in vain, until I found your video. I also added the marine grease before I closed the whole assembly. I fish saltwater, so marine grease is for protection. Thanks again!

[@GMANSC45]

Thanks so much for your video! I was cleaning up my Abu Orra today. Fixed the clunky cranking and then created a bigger issue by shooting the bail spring across my shop. I was struggling to reassemble. Watched this video and had a beer......reel back together in 5 minutes.

[@andyjame2451]

*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

[@NightGoat]

Dude. thank you. I thought for sure I’d gone too far messing with a reel. The spring popped out. Couldn’t find it. So I used a spring from a Lead Pencil instead. Without this video this reel would be on the shelf! Thank you! Fish on friend!

[@jamieu]

Super sweet!

[@diakelmad]

Finally! This is the same mehanism in the Silver Max 5 and I have been messing with my reel for a hot minute. Thank you for the video!

[@hamedslim5919]

Thanks for your video.. It helped me to fix my reel🤗👋

[@mchrr0n]

Merci, you have saved me a trip back and forth to to the Canadian Tire and a made-up lie to the clerck. You saved my reel.

[@bassmankelly1744]

Thank you so much for this video. When I disassembled my real parts went flying. The only thing I would add to your video is the lever attached to the Spring is the one that inserts into the little hole not the rod part.

[@GoatyHerps]

This video is a lifesaver. I took apart my Cardinal to clean and lube and that little piece with the pins on it fell out and I had a hell of a time figuring it out.

[@GoatyHerps]

Aannndddd I just broke the bail arm. Oh well.

[@UnratedMinds]

Amazing help! My mitchell 308 has been giving me hell for weeks, even lost that bail wire part because of the spring so had to order a new one.

[@paulhardy2309]

Helpful video. Wouldn’t have been able to put my reel back together without it. Thanks!

[@RichGotFish]

Thanks Jamie. You just saved me from figuring out how this went back together. The reel has been apart on my bench for over 6 months awaiting the little curved part. There's been a problem with Daiwa shipping parts.

[@gerrykriner7022]

this video saved my hundred dollar mitchell 300 pro reel much appreciation sir

[@brianharden150]

Thanks Jamie! Great video and explaining this procedure in an easy-to-understand fashion! My bail is now fixed!

[@jamieu]

Fantastic Brian, thanks for posting

[@TheSmreese516]

Listen, man. I don’t know if you wear a cape, but you should. People need to know who the heroes are. Thank you!

[@jamieu]

Haaaa! As with most people, my cape comes and goes. Very glad the video was helpful for you.

[@catchnwithcarter4013]

Thank you so much I was trying to clean my reel and that little part flew out and I panicked this helped so much it’s working properly again now

[@Yoderz]

Thank you! My pro max 30 exploded on me when I took off the side panel. This helped me perfectly put it back together. Thank you again!

[@timwollmann2141]

Thanks! Great video and descriptive detailing of each part sure helped me out a lot. Much appreciated.

[@TrafficCones]

Watched the entire add to give you the revenue. Thank you so much sir, I can't even express my gratitude honestly...I own a mitchell300 Pro and this worked as they share the same spring bail mechanism.

[@davidblesener3454]

Thanks for the demo saved my Abu Garcia Cardinal reel.

[@alexkasza2416]

Video was a great help in reassembling the bail on my Cardinal STX30

[@RedEyedJack]

Thank you for this video!!!! Had two reels that were broke, thought it would be easy to swap the bails from one to another. Took the screw out and the small pieces inside shot out, never to be found again! Used the parts from the other reel and this video get my better reel back up and running!

[@jamieu]

Cool! thanks for feedback

[@beekay6718]

Thank you very much! EXACTLY what I was searching for.

[@jamieu]

Cool, i went searching for how to fix this myself when cleaning out sand from the bail connector and it all went flying! After not finding any vids myself, I spent 2 hours trying all combinations of fitting it back together until I figured it out. Glad to hear it helped u out.

[@Jordan-sr9gy]

Jamie U how come mine didn’t have the plastic thing. It only has the spring and a little metal thng

[@zacharywatson3242]

[@christophemichou2852]

Hello Jamie. I have two revo neos 40 for quite 10 years now. And for a long time now, both bails have a little play, a few millimeters when closed. I always did as you do but I don't understand. When I see your video it seems that the parts of my reels are not so used. Is there a trick when replacing the spring? Thanks

[@OrtnerJeffrey]

Lost the little plastic piece when pulling the spring out. Anyone have a source to get just that piece?

[@wetoncrater]

Life saver. Thank you!

[@吳鎮佑-n1n]

Thank you very much!!!!!!! You save my reel !!!!!!

[@kylemcarthurstudios2117]

[@0Panzerjunkie0]

[@taylorbeard9755]

[@Rich-ic8wl]

[@drewdarby]

Awesome video; thanks !😊

[@jrfernadez]

Thanks! I finally fixed the bail on one my spinning reels.

[@靖宇韓]

thank you , your video help alot

[@jonathanmoore7351]

I lost that plastic piece, probably forever, do I have any hope of fixing this or do I have to get another brand new reel and hope it doesn't have bail problems right out of the package too, I don't have a receipt or anything but the bail was messed up from the factory, and I'm actually not sure if that plastic piece came in it. Idk, it's the last thing I need, and I'm running out of days to fish here in Missouri

[@pyrotechnic101]

Thanks buddy, exactly what I was looking for!

[@mihaistan368]

Thank you, thank You & u-tube ! Iv had this Abu Garcia Cardinal x30 reel that was bought for me 2 years ago ! At the end of that season, we were out and got caught in a storm in the boat ! Anyway,someone must of accidentally stepped on the reel and broke the plastic attached bale connection that on the reel ! The reel was so new , I didn't want to give it up so I t Unscrewed it and the parts flew ! I found the parts out know way get back together ! I kept the reel and parts and bought another SX 30! I thought just for the heck of it to see if u-tube might have something on it ! Its been 2 years sitting in the closet ! And yep , there you were, it seemed like it had the same parts so I studied your video ! Yahooo , I got an extra reel for next season as long as my glue holds !👍👍👊👊🎣🎣🎣⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
