PERFECT video. Watched 3 or 4 before I found this one but it explained everything I needed it to. THANK YOU!!! Now I can finally service MY first fishing rod (from 30+ years ago) for my 3 yr old son and teach him how to fish 🙂

great call on the drag wheel I just did my sons about 3 weeks ago it had been sitting for over 25 years and I broke one of the pieces you squeegee together to get the drag wheel of. so ebay I went to get a parts I needed and now it looks and works like new. Zebco spincast reels are super easy to work on that is why I but them and use them.

[@TSGReelService]

Excellent news, Rick! Thanks for watching the video. Glad to hear you were able to get it fixed. Great beginner reels! More vids to come!

That took me back to my youth. I used a Johnson Skipper Spin caster for a while way back in time. The word on the street back then was the Johnson was a step up from the Zebco. 😆

[@TSGReelService]

🙂 it probably was. I used handlines the early part of my youth. 🙂

Zebco's - the reel I grew up with as a kid in Minnesota, Ohio and New York. But when I moved to South Florida in 1967 at age 12 - within four months, snook, jacks, bluefish, mackerel and a tarpon or two made a quick destruction of my three Zebco's. That is when I came into a well used DAM Quick 330 - which to this day are my favorite reels. Still have the 330 and eight more DAM Quicks from the 70's - just ultra dependable fishing reels Have a Great Fourth of July. Tad

Thanks. Was fixing up my 30 year old model of this one and couldn't for the life of me figure out how/where to put the reverse clip back in.

Spincasters like the Zebco 202 get a of grief as being an 'inferior' product. But some say the same about using cane fishing poles, even though people have been catching tons of fish on them for generations. I say g'on and refurb that 202, take the $$$ you saved to buy lures & bait, and get on the water. When all is said and done, the fish don't care what was used to catch them.

[@TSGReelService]

Agreed, brother! Hand lines have also worked very well over the years and continue to do so.
