Sears Gamefishter - Remember Those

[fisherman7]

Hi all, would anyone happen to know where to get parts for these. Need the recoil assembly. 

Yup, I know they are old, older than me actually! 

Thanks!

A stab in the dark, don't know if this would fit yours. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/304890236296?hash=item46fcdfcd88:g:C~QAAOSwbVZkiRte&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4AnLg457tqN6uYPGBcWl8ZnRA%2FeMbKDVQaFC7POLsXOzFOpr1yif7W%2BIkHKBbJhZZj8LI4%2FiUf85pucN0L202EpFQ6YVyJn8JrHqzZfVU4YZ5LnljG%2BShUEh2pD8XbHfINyu8GpMmAVXeLS%2FrCizdkZVvogew0UPomY3lMWoGJ87vD5VycvgmljsOMOOPpWc0vzkJkbrz0GlsSF39k8KjW%2Bt6uXSENF5kbKPN%2FwC%2BKh%2Bm4z8GfGm8%2Bhx%2FfTAJBnRFKI0bbB0JA51oJ5OdtysKzUHaWis11DjZVoFkKZVu%2Bzm|tkp%3ABk9SR9bBic6hYg

Looks light a rebranded Mighty Mite " Neptune " from around 1950's, if that helps

I owned a couple of 5 horse versions, one was under the "Ted Willams" name I recall, they worked but they never worked well.

However I did have a Sears Gamefisher Electric motor, 25 speed (rheostat type dial) that served me well for many, many years before giving it away.

I too had one of these, a 1.2hp that never worked particularly reliably. Preferred the driveway to any waterbody.  A shame cause it was so light. They were also sold as Tanaka . I remember parts being difficult to source and that was 10 plus years ago. I think I just sold mine last year.

too bad Chuck Convery is dead and gone.  He called his shop (North Shore Marina on Loughborough Lake) the home of a million parts, and I don't think that was an over-statement.  And he knew where stuff was in that boar's nest of a place!!!  When the North Shore road ended, and all you could see was a thousand outboard motor covers, you knew you had arrived. 😉

Sorry I can't help, but the reminiscing was pleasant.
