My Monofil

[Alto Mare]

I asked Ted to keep an eye out on a Gray Monofil and within days this is what he sends

this one appears to be brand new, i know that Ted has some stamping tools, i'm wondering if he's making his own
Thanks Ted, you always deliver .
And here is that beaut

I love these things narrowed

Beautiful, Sal! Is that Tib frame a #P10?

~A~

a reel beauty sal, enjoy

[Alto Mare]

Thanks guys and gals:) ! Aiala, that is a P16. A P21 would be a 501 Jigmaster.

Wow.

[Shark Hunter]

She's Beautiful!

[Aiala]

Aiala, that is a P16. Sal

Aha, thanks. Question: Is your reel a Monofil 25 or 26? (I can't quite tell from the photo.) And, would the P16 fit either one?

Too many questions.  You are going to make Sal's head hurt.    Dominick

An occupational hazard for a distinguished Font of Knowledge like Sal.

Aiala, you could use the P16 on all reels with the same size plate, of course you would also need the 29L-100 spool and the 29L-146 for the Squidders.
The P16 will work on Beachmasters-Baymasters- Monofil and Squidders and so will the stainless steel spacer bars that Alan is working on at the moment.
I like stainless steel better than aluminum .

You need to convince Alan C. To make  SS frames with those side plates he is rolling out!!

[Maxed Out]

Wow Sal, you made a very cool reel, and I somehow sense a few others may want to do the same now that you have once again paved the way.

BTW, how did you get all the inside parts so nice in that first pic ?? I never knew a bridge plate could look like that. .....and yes I do happen to own 2 cavity molds for penn reels, I only wish I could put them to use .

[Ron Jones]

I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but if Alan made stands like Newells then the 501 size would fit a 501, 146 and 49 and his bars would still work. I'm guessing that the price of his stand and two bars would exceed the price of a Tib frame but then again they would be stainless, who doesn't want that?
