rare1 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 This is shamefull, but my 3yr old got the barbie fishing kit and i have absolutely no clue as how to rig it up as the instructions were tossed (how hard could it be hey?.....), it is a very strange design and !@#$ i have nearly given up on this!! There is a lot of very usefull knowledge floating around here so any help (not payouts) regarding this kids toy would have me and bugalugs stoked. *It is an enclosed design with a metal hub over the line that spins when u wind (spool with the line is stationary), this hub has metal spring loaded pin at the top which i suspect is like the feeding roller, and around the spool is felt, if you feed through to the pin there is no guide to spool the line...... *no info found on the web either *not sure where purchased to look at another pack Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rare1 Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 Sounds like a closed face spinning reel ???UNSCREW THE METAL HUB AND FEED THE LINE AGAINST THE METAL SPRING AND PULL THE LINE THRU THE HOLE .Does it have a hole in the middle of the metal hub for the line to come out of ??? and a button on the back to release the line . Cheers Swordfisherman Haha, thanks for the reply Sword fisherman. It is a closed face reel, your post got me thinking and i figured out that the line feeds from the reel to the pin outside the hub which engages after its screwed in ( i didnt notice b4). Woohoo! Sounds like there's a funny story behind some rod trouble Sharky, what happened? Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
