I have a medium light Berkeley rod. The reel on it is something like a Shakespeare, LX 3500 long cast. The reel is old (so is the pole) and want to get a new one for the pole. Love the way it cast but the line gets caught in this weird design flaw it has. Any suggestions? Also have a medium ugly stick 6’6 also need suggestions for a new reel on that plz.

Where does the line get caught? It’s highly likely that your old line just has memory and is getting springy. Your problems might go away with some new line
I have this reel. And I needed to modify it because of the line getting caught. If it has the little lever by where the line comes out, unscrew that, you should be left with a little metal piece in its place which should just pop right out with some pliers.
