Hi all I am still tyring to track down spare parts for my ABU 507 , Nigel thinks he can sort out my reel for the short term. so I am still looking for the Winding cup (rooter). Gary at The Mill's tackle company said he might be able to help how ever he is hard to get hold of as he works and repairs part time . Thanks in advance for any suggestions [ 23.

Hi Guys and Dolls I would like some help please in finding some spares for my old ageing Abu 507. Its getting on for over twenty five years and I love this real caught many good fish on it, the parts that I am after are the winding cup as the spring loading is not working correctly. Any old parts would be welcome I have had 3 suppliers which now have no parts. Ian Rose of sea shore angling Devon which seem to have sold up in the last few weeks, Mick @ the creel Aldershot Bob of Harrison of Lincoln. Many thanks for taking the time to look MDGfishing Mad

Thanks for trying guys they are about the right floats , however they are pricy as you say I was looking for the Leeder ones , more as they are not so expencive. Wat about the heavy full boidied waglers ?????

Nugg, have past your comments to the admin at DD please try again the site is worth a look. http://www.digi-darkroom.com/index.php?s=

Do any of you guys and dolls know where I might buy these floats at a reasonable price . leeda used to make this style of floats a while ago for around £1.20 ish. They are mainly basla body and crow quill. Used for trotting all rivers, I use them on a center pin as they hold back very well. Second part of the thread on floats I am also looking for heavy bodied wagglers (NOT CARP) for deep lakes 3 - 8 AAA. Thanks for any help MDG [ 15.
