The short answer to this question is yes, any type of screwdriver will work, as long as you have the right end on the screwdriver (flathead, Phillips or star). However, there are certain kinds of screwdrivers that will make it easier compared to others. Having a bit that has a magnetic head on it, for example, will make sure that you won’t lose the screw as you take it out, and will make it easier for when you are putting the screw back in. Another item which could help is having a battery powered screwdriver. This will ensure you have the proper amount of torque needed to secure the reel to the fishing pole. If the reel is loose when you reattach it, it could screw up the alignment of the line and cause you more issues than you intended to take care of with your fishing pole.
