I'm rebuilding a squidder Magnum I've had put away for years and thought I had all the stainless parts ready to go.  I forgot it does not take the jigmaster yoke or eccentric jack plate.  The yoke is a 12-55 and the jack plate is an 11-200.  I actually need two of the jack plates, it's the same as in my pro gear 255.  Here is a comparison picture.  Anybody have these in stainless or know where I can find em?

UPDATE. So I had spare time on my hands and looked.  Seems the Penn 209m uses the 12-55 yoke in stainless and the 11-155 eccentric jack plate in stainless.  Not the same part number as what's in there (11-200) but nearly identical.  Works without mods.  So now this reel is all stainless internally.  Next is my Pro-Gear 255 which I believe needs the same jack plate.

It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

Are you gonna run 5:1 gears?
Awesome little reel that.

Yes Ron a set of BP gears and a 5 stack.  Why not turn a $40 reel into a $300 reel, it's only money.

I bought a beautiful gold Squidder magnum from Randy not too long ago, and just opened it up.
It has stock jigmaster bridge and gears. I do believe it's time to put some more money on the insides of this sweet little reel.

its an awesome little reel that can easily be fished with 15lbs of drag.
