Ive only ever owned the original stratos years ago and they were terrible and made my infintys feel light. Never owned any of the newer ones.

My son had a set of Fox EOS 10000's. Wasn't that impressed with them, bail arm bent on one, line clip broke on another, line lay wasn't brilliant.

The Tackle Box are official distributors for Fox spares, get in touch with them. Respond quickly and fairly reasonable prices. Don't know if it's a quick fix though.

I owned the stratos and they were the worst reels I had!! Literally something would fall off or break every 6 months (used once a week for 24hrs). Got fed up with keep replacing bits so they're now in the back of the shed somewhere. And then trying to speak to someone at fox that could be bothered was near on impossible!!

It looks like it just screws into the bail arm lever/spring. I've just found the parts on their website, going to email and see if I can order them.

Any thoughts on the 10'000 pro ? Been looking at getting one to replace my last remaining fs10000 (had 3) that's packed in on my floater rod
