Vintage reel parts
Question
I have a Lawrence 280 "Monospool" trolling reel missing the left side hub nut/cap.(opposite side from handle) This nut/cap is also the adjustment for centering the spool. Are you aware of any contacts that might have vintage reel parts, so far I have had no luck. I was thinking collectors near one of the coasts would be the best bet for trolling type reel parts.
Thanks for any help.
