Reel service
Hi everyone, my names Lachie, I'm 15 and I service fishing reels. I only do egg-beater style reels because that's the only type that I have been properly taught how to do. I do the new reels that need a touch up to keep them performing at their best, I do the old reliable reels that you want brought back to life or the second hand reels just bought, so that you get the best experience out of your new reel. I live in Rossmoyne (about 20 mins south of Perth on the canning river) and that is also where I do the servicing. Currently I charge $20 for each reel serviced and don't offer any discounts for servicing more than 1 reel because the price that I service for is very competitive already. I also don't replace parts because many parts can be hard to find and the shipping can be extremely costly. If anyone would like their reel serviced please email me at or pm me or send me a private message on Facebook (Lachlan Hartfield).
Also I will be away for the whole school holidays so therefor I will not be servicing reels then but I am open to any other time! Because of all my schoolwork and a generally busy lifestyle, it usually takes me about a week to complete 2 reels.
this job is something that I do instead of working at maccas or something so I put my best ability into every reel that I complete because it takes priority over everything except for exams!
thanks,
lachie

No I haven't dropped one
No I haven't dropped one yet, so I might not get the insurance. If the reel were to break I would just have to replace it with the money I have earnt previously
