After some shipping mishaps I finally received a lot of three older baitcasters I won on eBay. After holding them in my hands I can tell one of them is probably a good candidate for a resell, but the other two might just need some work, and that's my question.
I'm not really sure of the state of these reels right now. Do you guys know of any checklist I should go through to analyze their worth? It's most definitely winter here, but I could put some new line on them and cast them around a parking lot.
Also, my guess is they need to be serviced in some way. Should I get some reel oil? Reel lube? Is there a difference?
Any input on getting these reels up to snuff (or at least to the point where I can make a judgment on their worth) would be appreciated.
