I found an Abu 5000 in the pond behind my house. I have no idea how long its been under water. It appears to be a bit older reel and the lake is much smaller than it once was. Everything appears to work fine, but I haven't put it on a rod yet to try out. Here's my question. Should I just give it a lube job, new line and go at it or should I see about rebuilding it first. Is there anything that could be messed up if I snagged a decent catfish and it decides to run? I guess I'm curious because I don't want to mess it up, but it was free. I plan to go after some cats this weekend if I can.
