Missing Cast Control Cap

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Missing Cast Control Cap

Post by Normware » Thu Mar 15, 2018 5:35 am

I have a Chronarch CH101BSV. Somehow the cast control cap has gone missing. I have contacted Shimano Canada to see if they have a replacement part. Sadly they do not. I have checked Ebay for BNT 3212 - no luck.

Is there a compatible cap from another Shimano reel that is still in production? Is there a custom part?

I have looked for a beat CH101/100 but any I have found is pricey.


Thanks

Mike's reel repair can prolly get it for you. Unfortunately, it may take a while. They're ridiculously slow. My last order took over six weeks to arrive! I'd try asking Gary at the Tackle Trap. He may be able to source one for you.

Thanks for the replies.


I used to get parts from Mikes years ago. Never an issue. I tried them first and got no response. I have tried many other so called reel repair sites.

I will be trying Reelparts Thanks Zimbass.
