Welcome!

You are in the right place.  Spend some time checking out the existing postings, and don't be afraid to ask questions.  We have a number of Penn guys here, including the guy who wrote the books on the history of Penn Reels.
Hope springs eternal
for the consumate fishermen.

There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.

The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

Welcome Allen!
These vintage reels are very easy to work on.
If you get stuck, there are a bunch of guys here that could  help you out.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Welcome Allen.  Those Penn reels are easy to work on after you have a couple under your belt.  If it is of the first ones you're tackling just jump in and ask for help.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
