Deep_Sea_Gull is on a distinguished road
One additional point... You can use a soldering iron to add heat to the screw along with your penetrating oil. It will make the penetrating oil more effective. Just touch to head of the screw with the iron for about a minute or so. Add more oil as it cools and try again with the screw driver. You are trying to break a galvanic bond.

I agree with txseadog. Break down any new to you reel and add the grease.
