Interesting never heard of a abu Garcia 2 speed.

Go down to the reels section of the board, there are people who can help you out there.

They made them in the early '90's. I wish I could find one.

Suzie @ Reel Inn is great. You can ship it to her and she will clean/repair and ship it back to you. She does great work, and does the reel work for many of the fishing guides in the Houston/Galveston area.

Thanks again Danny for fixing the reel! I haven't had a chance to get that handle to you. Any one needing reel work or cleaning in Austin get a hold of gazn357 has it working better then before.
