Product Description
Mitchell 81994 Click Spring – Genuine Replacement Part
The Mitchell 81994 Click Spring is a vital internal component for the Mitchell 600 series of conventional and trolling reels. This spring is responsible for providing the audible "click" when the line is being pulled from the spool, alerting the angler to a strike. It also provides the necessary tension for the clicker assembly to function correctly.
Over time, click springs can lose their tension, become corroded, or snap due to frequent use. Replacing a worn or broken spring with this genuine-spec part restores the loud, crisp alert system that is essential for bait fishing and trolling applications.

Maintenance & Lubrication Recommendation
While the click spring is a simple mechanical part, proper lubrication is essential to prevent rust and ensure a consistent sound. We highly recommend Deuthlon products:
-
Deuthlon Reel Grease: Apply a very light coating to the spring where it contacts the clicker gear. This prevents metal-on-metal wear and acts as a waterproof barrier against salt and moisture.
-
Deuthlon Reel Oil: Use a single drop on the pivot point of the clicker button to ensure the spring engages and disengages effortlessly.
