New Math Update....

[Bill B]

Thanks to Daron (SharkHunter) for the generous offering, this Old 200 is back in fishing shape...as previously shown in Penn Reels.... Just as You Find Them http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=15800.60, this old war pony had a badly chipped spool, but surprisingly not blow up from the mono load it was carrying, now sports a chrome spool, and ready to go harass the local striper population.....Daron, standby for incoming snail mail...Thanks again brother........Bill

Thanks guys....Matt how magnets did you end up using....I'd like to do that here.....

Hi TARFU - Id start with three 8mm X 1.75mm - Glue a thin tin plate to the bridge to the outer edge - when your thumb is educated enough you can just take the plate off and remove one - start with + - + and on my 160 Beachmaster I had three magnets was too much so took one out and it was much better but was still slowing down too quick so ended up flipping a magnet so it was ++ or --. You might need to get an alloy spool too as I haven't tried the mag system on the chrome-brass spool yet.
