captpierre Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 My muskie rod and reel ended up in the lake for 2min. Fortunately the cork handle kept it afloat. Is my reel ok or does it need some first aid?  I'm not very good with opening up things with a lot of parts and springs. 🙄  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 Put it in zip-loc with a cup of uncooked rice for a day or two, should be fine. PS.....set the zip-loc in a sunny location. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 Reels are meant to get wet   I'd let it dry out in the sun and fish it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
