   That one has incredible coloring Chris! I'd love to find a Long Beach that dramatic...but they just didn't seem to play around with the more expensive models. The fantastic mottling always seems to be on 85s, Delmar 285s, and the Atlantic 14s and 15s. 8)

Thanks Mo!
Speaking of 85s this one is a recent grab. I initially thought the headplate was black, but saw it had a dramatic tailplate. I was surprised when I got it and saw the headplate.

Got this orange in-numbered tailplate for a light casting reel. So I put it on a clean non-numbered 160. Seems appropriate for October

That's nice and crisp.  The stand condition is impressive as well.  There's something about those small Penns.  I like 'em.

 Looks purty Mike, but closer inspection tells me it's painted green, but I still kinda like it

Whatsa "S" stand for on the teal-113?
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

AC49

The "S" stands for solid or single... meaning not a three piece spool as per Broadway a while back.
