Shimano spinning reel

I have a Stradic FJ 2500. The anti-reverse isn't working. I like to fix my own reels, just not sure which part(s) I need to replace. I live outside the Modesto area, not sure where to send it if need be. Any help would be appreciative.

Sonora Bass Anglers (see facebook page for pic and video explanation) had one over 10lbs at the January tournment and one of Gloryhole's employees caught one over 10lbs as well on a different day. I believe that pic is on their website as well.
