Like I said, you don't want to know you have a computer. You just want
an appliance.

OTOH I have never had a reason to take a fishing reel apart. ;-)


It's a lot more difficult than swapping out a hard drive or video card.

I take mine apart at least once a season to clean out any goop and
relube them.


I don't fish enough to gunk up a reel and these days it is all fresh
water. I really can't imagine taking a reel apart is any harder than
pulling a bearing carrier or rebuilding a tilt and trim unit tho.



The reels have a plethora of teeny tiny pieces and parts.
