Used both my avet and shimano you serviced for me easter weekend and they were awesome. warning to those getting their reels serviced with john, you may get in trouble with your wife. The reels came back sparkling like new that she swore I had bought two new ones lol. Had to convince her they were my two old formally bait covered and dull reels :)

Dropped of 5 reels to John this afternoon and not feeling the best. I suggest giving him a buzz.
I sent John a pm on Monday and it's still in my outbox.

John has always serviced and upgraded my reels, including a recent cabontex upgrade on my brand new Stradic 5000, this blokes work is too cheap for the attention to detail that he puts into his work.

Thanks again john

Another plug for North Shore Reel Service.
John just fished another 6 reels for me and they all come back like new.
I can't wait to try out my type r with the tricked up Hedgehog studio bearing.

Thanks mate for exceptional great work at an affordable price.

Another plug for John.

I bought a reel from him, second hand. He obviously worked his magic on it as it's smoother than a new one. Quality workmanship and attention to detail.

Thanks again mate, it's exactly what I was after!

Got some reels serviced and some bearing upgrades done last week. Just got back from the daly and thought I'd mention the reels are in top shape, one is far better than when I bought it new. John did a great job on them. Cheers.

Thought id give few the heads up on johns reel service to, could not speak high enough about the work and service he done on my daiwa zillion he went out of his way . It has come back as good as new, if not better with kick ass new bearings and drag washers. I normally send my reels down to perth , but from postage time to return to john from kununurra was a tad over a week . cheers

Is there anything this bloke can't do.
Sent him my Venom live fibre rod. Wasn't happy with the overall balance of the rod. Was also very heavy with the cork grip.
John extended the but a few inches, split the grip and put some pretty color trims on it. Looks awesome and matches the Zillion as well noe with the red highlights.
Awesome.... Wilson should hire you John. Seems you improved their rod so much so it should come like that from factory.
