Title: HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Post by: small_fish on October 09, 2006, 03:31:35 PM
I need to return my abu garcia ambsauder reel, but I do not have the pink brake manuel. Therefore I can't return the reel, my parents are yelling at me and its hell. $150 bucks down the drain. If anyone can help me get hold of the insturtion book, please let me know I will even buy it! or you can just help out a little guy. Please help! thanks

Explain to the tackle shop that you lost the instruction book. Most tackle shop will accept it back providing you still have the receipt. Where did you purchase the reel ?

So why are your parents mad at you then? It wasn't their money right?

Also, you said before that the only reels you had were smaller spinning reels for trout. If you take the time to get accustomed to using a levelwind over a spinning reels you will not believe how much more effiecient it will make your fishing.

Hmmm...why not have your dad take back the reel for you along with the receipt. Might be more obliging to him.

If you need one, I have one for you.  I'm coming up there to the Vedder this Sunday PM and will be there until Thursday PM.  Let me know if you'll be able to get it from me.  If not, I could put it in an envelope and leave it at Fred's for you.

Biff is right small fish, keep the reel, and be patient!  the rains are really late this year, I havent been out for coho yet....no big rush, when the rains hit the fishing will be much better and you will be glad you have a good rod and reel!  If you want to fish sockeye next summer, you will want the gear you have now.

 :(

is it a generic manual (meaning good for any abu baitcast reel) or does itspecifically say the model of your reel (ie. 6500c3?)?

I have a few generic manuals that you can have from recent reels - where do you live in town?

check my profile for email if you just need a generic manual.

Then don't go and buy another Abu six months later cause you need one :-\ you may regret getting rid of it. You always need something bigger than a spinning reel when push comes to shove.

Grounded for buying a reel??? that's something new to me :S

Post by: small_fish on October 09, 2006, 10:05:44 PM
They did'nt know where all my money went and they said it is too expensive.
So they said just wait and see if you can get one 2nd hand.
And you have to concentrate on school and soccer, not fishing at this time of year you can buy one later.
BIG LUCTRE!! I hated it
