    Shimano Calais Parts

    I am looking for a thumb bar and guide pins for a Calais 200. Any thoughts?

    They guy that works on my reels said there were two guide pins that the thumb bar rides on that needed to be replaced. Does that help?

    I have a Scorpion Anatares, and have had to replace the thumb bar, but havent really ever seen an issue with the bars. Must have been one helluva boo boo.

    Its not really broke.. The thumb bar just get sticky and doesn't engage all the time without some extra effort. He said it was just wear. This reel is so smooth that I hate to not use it... But the parts are out of production.

    Sounds to me like it needs to be properly broken down and greased up.

    You have clutch issues, has little to do with thumbar. Dan

    Which 200 do you have?
