Hi,
I was checking my kit for a trip to the Teifi this weekend and my 375 has rusted up.
I've now lost the spring under the spool release catch and it's officially knackered unless I can get a spare one (BFR seems to have disappeared off the map - anyone got a number?)
I'd rather not fork out £35 on a brand new reel so if anyone has one kicking about that they don't use and want to sell then please email/pm me with a view to getting it here for Friday.
HELP!
Jon
PS - they're also compatible with the original Orvis Rocky Mountain cartridge...just in case

I think BFR have been sadly been sold to the Chinese but they were in Falmouth if that's any help.
Only place I can think of is McHardy's in carlisle or Mullarkys or maybe fawcetts.

No worries Jon, as luck would have it I have that model reel as a spare, just bring the spools of line down with you. With the rental and delivery to the Teifi you'll have a couple of pennies left out of £35.00.
Some bronze mallard feathers would be rather nice.......

Hi DB,
Thanks vm indeed.
