Today's Rainy Day Project

[BarryBobPosthole]

Was fishing up at Dogtooth last year and the thumb bar button on my favorite baitcaster stuck. So hopefully something ain't broke, but today's project is to tear this bad boy apart and try to fix it.

I have two children;

If one of them was in Jail and the other was fishing with a baitcaster, I'd go help that one first. Clearly that would be the child not making wise decisions! ;)

That's like saying you'd never use a box end wrench.

Have you got your Sea Foam ready? :-)

Well that one was easy and I kind of had an idea it was my dumbass self that caused the problem. I cleaned that reel up last year before my trip and when I put the right side back on it I put it on without the button being up, meaning the little doodad it engages with was cattywampus. Took about two minutes.

Next victim!

I hate it when the doodad don't line up with the cattywampus. That causes a lot of downtime. ;)
