Tried a temporary repair ona '60's jigmaster 'till I could get the right eccentric screw. Seems to be thread-sized inbetween SAE coarse and fine with fine being closer. Anyone know what the size is and best place to source one without ordering it?

Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

It costs $1.65 at MysticParts. If you look elsewhere for 5 minutes it's costing you more than ordering it from them.

It's all I need for now, so factor in shipping, $5+, and down reel time, while waiting( on left coast, California now). So does anyone know the size?

Shipping from JDL is a little cheaper & cheaper for a used part. Penn uses some rare almost unobtainable thread sizes. Better off getting the original screw before you bugger up the threads  & have to get an eccentric as well. For the time being just use another reel.        Rudy

Hey Gfish, I've got one for you, PM me your address. A 23-180 also fits here, that's what I can send you. It fits my Jigmasters. Rudy, I may have an eccentric for you, too.

Thanks anyway Sid but I don't need an eccentric. I was just telling gfish that if he tries to use the wrong screw thread he will just bugger up the eccentric.    R

Sorry Rudy, I obviously misread.
