I had no idea there were 2 Penn reel oils. I purchased a 4 oz bottle of Penn precision reel oil and when I used it, I was surprised. Instead of the thin blue oil I was used to, a thicker clear oil came out. I compared the bottles and I saw the difference in the labels. The one I had just purchased was the Penn precision reel oil. The thin blue stuff is Penn synthetic reel oil. I used the thicker stuff on handles and worm gears since it seemed to stick better. I won't know till the season whether or not it was a good idea. Has anyone seen the clear precision reel oil before? The bottle looked exactly like the synthetic reel oil except for the wording.
Tight lines all,
