    That's correct. Trey is a great guy and does excellent work. He also paints some mean baits. He's the only one I let touch my reels, and it's worth shipping them down there.

    All the locals and the CAST CREW guys use AC Slayers Extreme Reel Tuning

    He is at all the local shows and I wouldn't hesitate using him. Made a couple of my shimanos super smooth!

    Does either Trey or Ben also fix reels? I think I need gears in a couple Abu Garcia reels.

    Trey also does reel repairs. Replaces drags, bearings, cleans and tunes. Also custom paints baits.
