- In this video I show you two types of common issues that result in the anti-reverse failing on your spinning reel and how to repair both. I hope this was helpful!
And if anyone can tell me why this option even exists on our reels comment below and let me know.
Thank you all for the views on this!! I truly hope it was helpful!
Yes it definitely was! 100%
My father passed away a few years ago. I recently found one of his fishing poles and the anti-reverse did not work due to unhooked spring. Thanks to your video it is fixed. Now I have another wonderful memory of my dad. Thank you.
I'm so glad this couldve helped. My best memories with my dad were of being on the water. He worked a lot and was... out a lot... but we had those memories and I know that's why I have this passion today. Tight lines my friend
I have to check my fishing rods , I didn’t know they had anti reverse in them .
*Nice reel so far **enjoyable.fishing** recommend used it for about an hour after getting it from Amazon and functioned flawlessly. Very smooth retrieve and the anti reverse is perfect. Feels like a reel that would be double the price.*
5 years later and this video saved me from buying another reel, thank you.
I am so glad to hear that. You're very welcome!
Same thing here
I love taking reels apart, you learn a lot and/or break a lot. I don't ruin as many as I used to.
I actually had another reel I was going to use for the loose bushing example but it had hot glue in it, lol... I was a teenager when I did that... young and naive and no CZcams to guide me
I just ruined mine like 2 seconds ago
I was able to fix my reel with the instructions you presented in the video. I was thinking it couldn't be fixed and almost threw my reel out before I saw your video. You saved me money which is helpful with prices on everything going up. Thanks for doing this.
Absolutely, I'm so glad it could help!
really saved my bank account today almost went to go buy a new reel thankfully saw this video🙏🏿
I love CZcams. It’s videos like this that make it so great. Thanks man. I am terrible at fixing things but I was able to fix my busted reel with this video.
Dude, I've never left a comment ever...but you just nailed down my issue exactly, thanks for the great tutorial.
So glad to hear it! And it really means a lot that you took the time to comment! Thank you! Tight lines my friend!
Thank you. Bought a new reel and this happened after about 5 uses. I wasn't really sure what to search for, but I'm glad I found this. Tytyty!!
Thank you for responding so quickly I really appreciate you from what you told me I saw the post and I got it done I had to Spring backwards so the real kept spinning both ways now it spins one way the way it's supposed to had a rope tied around the pole and a handle to stop it from moving not anymore thank you very much God bless
Thank you so much. I was about to throw my Pflueger President away and get a new one. Not only did you save me 60-70 bucks... you allowed me to catch some more monsters on this reel. You rock. Tight lines 🤙🤙
So glad it helped, and fantastic reel choice!
1st video I've ever seen with this many views and no dislikes. Thanks for the info. Very helpful! Well done.
I spent 2 hours to find and fix the problem and I opened CZcams I searched and this video came up and In just 5 minutes I fixed my reel the video it was very helpful thanks man
6 year old video but saved my life.. thanks 👍🏼🔥
Thank you for posting this video. First solution fixed my anti reverse perfectly.
Thanks for posting, I never knew. I have a small box full of reels with the same problem. Looks like I will be busy.
Very helpful, 1st repair helped, stayed for the 2nd to get more smarter!! Thanks
OMG.😯 I was ready to trash my favorite reel now I'm back in action thanks buddy.
So glad to hear it man! Tight lines!
Very informative video. I was having a anti-reverse button problem on my Rapala Arachnid 5000. Opened it up and I had the two issues! The spring was off the switch and then the silver ring was slipping a bit off the tooth gear so I used a potent glue and it hold quite nicely. Thanks a lot!
Mate, your video was so helpful, I thought I was gonna have to buy a new reel, I pulled it apart and sure enough, that tiny spring had popped off, it was a bit of a pain to get it back on but in less than a 2 mins the reel was fixed… thanks heaps man..
OMG you are a life saver!! My problem was the second one.... Thought the reel was just going to be going in the garbage. My local tackle shop wouldn't even help me.
My only complaint is that the video was a bit out of focus on the small components part.... so it was hard to see. But it all worked out Thanks!
Thank you so much for the kind words and the much deserved constructive criticism. I've been hoping to re-do this vid with a decent camera but money is super tight. I'm so glad it helped though!
Dude, thank you so much...I have a Browning spinning reel that I really love and it had Problem # 2. I never would have guessed that your solution was the problem. Awesome!
I'm so glad it helped! That one took me a few reels to realize I didn't have to keep buying a new one
Just what I was looking for! Thanks and well done.
One of the most informative and well presented CZcams instructions I have come across for any issue
By far the kindest compliment I've received on this channel. Thank you:)
Definitely some very helpful video! Thank you very much! Maybe a little better lighting is all i could suggest!
Just potentially saved me from replacing a shimano stella spinning reel. That’s $1000 I did not want to have to spend. Thanks man!
Good deal.... appreciate the time you took to video that. My Wally Marshall micro reel can be fixed! That's gonna save me some money!
nice tips...fixed my quantum reel quickly based on these helpful tips!!!
Thanks my friend. I had a reel I was about to toss in the garbage. Watched your video and discovered the spring had sprung. I toom a spring out of a pen, it was way too big, but I doubled the spring and it has corrected teh problem 100%. Thank you for posting this.
So glad it helped!
Great instructions. It worked! Since I have 4 Pfleuger reels I ordered a second spring and am now glad I did. Thanks.
Awesome, I'm glad to hear that!
I'm currently on vacation and ran into this problem. Thank you for the video I got the real repaired and back in action!
*reel
Thanks very much! The spring fell of somehow, I put it back in and it's all good now!
Awesome some very cool hints there!!!! Take care and tight lines!!!
We’re new at fishing and I knew this pole was supposed to lock. Thanks for helping! I’ll be fixing it.
Thanks!! You just helped me save my favorite reel!! (problem #2 is what I had)
Brilliant video! Thanks so my much! Beautifully explained. 😁👍🏻
I fixed mine thanks to your video. Thanks!
I know it’s been a while since ya made the video you saved me from trashing a very nice quantum p t I my wife and kids got me for Father’s Day years ago I sent it to BassPro for repair but they sent it back I used j b weld and it fixed it Thank you.
My reel just started doing the same thing today, going to try this fix soon@ thanks for the video!
Awesome, just bought a new reel with this issue and resolved it myself with your tutorial. Great job!
Drake Johnson great job yourself! And thank you!
OK in 2021 your video is STILL helping people! TY for this I was able to fix my Black Max reel (Problem #1) in about 5 minutes and I thought it was doomed. Thanks again in 2021!
That's incredible, lol, I'm pretty blown away honestly. I'm so glad it helped!
Awesome video. Tiny misaligned spring on my switch was causing my anti reverse issue.
7:00 Excelent video. Was able to fix my reel by your second example. Thank you for sharing and Fish On.
I got this issue today i was worried hope my problem is same as yours mate ... Thank you so much 🙏
Thanks so much, I ran into the issue in part 2, fixed with JB weld!
I could use that to hold the spring, perhaps a drop of Super Glue.
Thanks I just got my first spinning reel I’ve had other reels but the reverse lock broke and now I can fix it.
Another great video brother. One of my favorite channels!
Thank you so much man!
An excellent video. You make it look easy. Thank you so much.
Thank you! I'm glad it could help!
Thanks that really helped. I fixed my real with no issues at all
My spring was busted, took a pen spring, had to cut it down a bit, but it worked fine. Thanks!
Thanks for the tips sir. It’s working 🙏🏼
Great video thanks a ton! You helped me fixed my reel this morning! I got lucky and it was the first (easier) situation to fix with the spring =)
Awesome, glad to hear it man!
Worked a treat👍 thanks a million. Tight lines
Thank you for the information! I was able to repair my reel!!
Awesome! So glad to hear it!
Thanks, you're easy to follow.
Thank God. I thought I was going to have to get a new reel.🙏🏽
Such a good video I followed the directions and it worked perfectly, thanks for the great video
Thanks so much for the kind words. So glad it helped!
awesome tips, I love those old rhinos I used to have a few.
Awesome video and great tips thanks for sharing with us all. As always happy fishing and tight lines
Appreciate it man! And back at you!
Great video, very helpful, cheers.
Great video!!! Very helpful, especially with problem #2!!!
Thank you! I'm so glad it helped!
Very helpful video thanks
Thanks for the help man.
Thanks a lot for this how to vid save me form junking a good reel!
Legend, really appreciate this.
Really handy! Just fixed my Okuma!!! Nearly binned it as it was sooooo annoying!
Great video, working on mine.... keep ya posted.
Awesome man and thank you! Best of luck!!
Thanks for the video really helped 👍
Excellent video!!
That was great dude! Thank you!
Just fixed a Quantum with the “no brake” issue using method #2. Great video, thank you!
As an addition to the video, for those who do use JB Weld, after one hour, make sure you scrape off any excess weld that is inside the bearing/gear. It will peel off like rubber cement, and allows the glue to remain just inside the cylinder, and not hunk up the works. Great tutorial, and a pretty easy DIY for saving some $ on sending a reel in for service.
Great instructions! I'm comfortable taking things apart, but without this video I would've neither identified nor known how to fix my reel's issue (#2). Thanks for helping me save my favorite reel!
Absolutely man, so glad it helped and thank you for the kind words!
Thanks,I have that same rhino reel which I really like with the same issue,now I can fix it.
Thanks alot. You are the man !
Just watched and thank you so much it helped and made my dad not mad at me for braking it
Haha, so glad it helped on both fronts!
Thank U. I will try to fix one of my fave Okuma spinning reels tomorrow. Like this reel for pulling spinners as it is pretty fast retrieve and smooth handling. Was very disappointed when the anti-reverse quit working.
It was the spring and the loop was too stretched to be able to hook it around the post.
Fixed. Thanks. Only watched half but you got me there!
Awesome man, so glad it helped!
thanks. yea i don't have many prob with them but the anti on the back side if the reel i do. I'm fighting with one now it worked i took apart to greese omg they sold me wrong stuff it was so thick. i have to take apart clean the best i could and sprayed lithium grease inside to fix. took a while being i had no cleaner to get old greese out but charcoal lighter fluid it worked with some stuff a guy had for greese. but i got the reverse kinda fixed. it had 3 settings. stop or stops back at the trigger spot or not at all. well only 2 work. I'll try to fix again later. but it's a brim reel i ain't to worried. but good video thanks god bless
DUDE!!!! GREAT video saved me from buying a new reel.
I am so glad it helped dude! Twas but a thing I had to do myself and figured I might share. Really glad it helped you out!
Thanks I saw the workings apparently I just had to move the spring a bit to get it to work properly I could tell it was supposed to be on the flat side not the point because there was a corrosion mark where it's at I will be cleaning and moving the reel innards good video
fixed my reel thanks to you!
Glad to hear it man!
Amazing and easy to follow. I have been using this broken reel for 2 years. It's all good now!!
Excellent video, very helpful, thanks
So glad it helped! And thank you!

bcfishing haha! Nice!
Thanks that helped a lot mate
pretty work - Thank you!
Just fixed my marathon reel thanks to this video.
So glad it helped!
@@TheFishinDad got any advice for cleaning spincast reels? I used my zebcos at the coast a couple times, so now they're all full of sand and salt.
So happy I came across this video, today my reel started acting up... Turned out it was problem 1 caused by some line that tangled at one point and pulled the spring off... Less than 5 minutes and its fixed.
So glad it was an easy fix!
Thank you for this video
merci beaucoup mon ami. it was very help full

GREAT VIDEO!!! Saved me $$$$!!!!!
Thank you! Glad to hear that!
saved my life thanks
Thanks! Fixed my real in 30 min!
Your the man!
Jesus you have no idea how much misery the tape idea could have saved me lol
Thanks, I just fix mine great video
wondering if you can help, i have a shimano fx200 and i noticed the rotor head appears to have some play ,idk if this is from wear n tear or designed like that, but since it has the quick fire trigger thing for opening the bail it might be no longer as smooth operating as it should be or might be doing more damage when using it since there is possibly too much play in the rotor head ,i dont think its possible to remove the head or fix this issue as i see no screws or nuts to do this, will it come off if i remove the gears or the main arbor(ie post)?
