Is the bail not popping back or what?

Yeah, The bail isnt poping back over, and if you put presure on the bail, like pulling the line, the bail sort of comes up. I think the spring might be had it :o
But im talking it with me to Brisbane this week, so if i get abit of spare time ill get it looked at 8) ;D

Yeah, if it's the spring, you can open and take a look at that pretty easy.
Easy to replace that part.

Hey, where did you buy the Quantum reel? I didn't know they sell them there.

Jip,

I picked it up on Fraser island at Happy Valey ( i think, not exactly sure what place on fraser it was) i wasnt after it, but my other reel had died the day before and i forgot to take the spare reel (wooops :-[)
But i got it for $55, wich i thought was cheap considering it was fraser island and everything is double the price anyway...lol.
But other than the Bail playing up it has been a great reel and i got 2 spare spools for it with heavyer and lighter line on them :D
