It will happen Kyle! ;D

when this guy says something like that, we better keep watching him closely

Whoa....damn right if Tom says it will happen I'm paying attention.

2018 will bring a lot of new products. Where the Magnums are on that list I don't know, but they are on the list.

I want to see a W-I-D-E Magnum 113H with 114H internals, double dogs ( synchronized, not alternating ), sleeve, etc, etc, etc . . .

The only thing I ask is that it DOES NOT have those "stubby" little feet on the Reel Foot ( like Accurate & Tiburon frames do ) They never fit the hoods on reel seats correctly.

Give us a strong, substantial reel foot, PLEASE !

Tight Lines !

I just read this entire thread and just have one word to say, WOW!
God, Family and Fishing, what else is there?

and look what I found on ebay, don't want it, but thought someone in here might...

Hmm...this or a little more for a Makaira 16II?

I know what Alan would do.  What would Wai do?

Steve

Yeah, after the 113H one piece frame is done, Magnum 500/501 one piece frame will be started

Prices on these reels has gotten out of control, I saw a 4/0 kit (NOS) sell for over $700.
You would be better suited with the Makaira 16.

I still don't understand this reel. If there is anything needed for a Jigmaster it is a 6:1 gear set. A magnum 500 is a max 4:1 reel. All the beefed up parts available today make a500 as strong as you can make it.

The Squidder Magnum, with 5:1 gears, that reel makes a lot of sense.

A taller gear for a squidder would be nice.
Do what you can with that you have where you are

David Hall

Higher gear ratio while fine for fast retrieve. I really appreciate this reel for bottom fishing or trolling for salmon with 2lbs of lead behind it.  The ratio is perfect.

Makaira...more utility and the frame is nowhere near as rare as the Magnum.

Maxed Out


....or just grab a pro gear 541. It is a ball bearing jigmaster Magnum with 4/1 gears and one piece frame and all Penn 113h internals. Decent used one can easily be found for under $125.
