No one?  Our semi feral roosters get me up around 04:00 from now until the days get shorter and we go back to Standard time.   >:(

Thanks for sharing it with us Dom. By the way, stainless steel looks very nice with red, when are you going to carve that plate for the double dogs? ;D
Later. Sal
Carve that plate?  You just gave Dom a heart attack.  Put Big Red to the knife aaaagghhh.   ;D.  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.

Lee:  Don't you know you can eat the roosters.  It quiets them down.  :) Dominick

They are small and tough but make good soup.  This week the latest addition is fighting 2 older roosters to be on the top of the pecking order...I should sell tickets and bet on them.

That reel is sick! Great Job Alto Mare. Has to be the nicest 9/0 ever, period.

You mean your rooster adjusts for daylight savings time?

Hey Harry, no Master here, but I'm glad you like my reel. About the handle, I don't see any in silver at the moment, but here is where I purchased it:

If you're just looking for the T knob, Dawn might have them in stock.

For those of you that are questioning whether or not it is worth it to upgrade an older Penn Senator.....keep an eye out on these. That should answer your question  ;):

I'm speculating that it will hit the $400 mark and I don't believe that bearings and screws are included.

I would love to get my hands on these, but, they're just too rich for my blood :(.

Starting at $100 for the side plates and $100 for the frame, that's really expensive.

I might know someone who bought a pair or two  ;)
They may have come with one bearing in each reel  ;)
They did not come with the bearing caps so I'm gonna pray the existing penn 9/0 bearing caps will work   :(
You might see the results very soon of a couple 9/0's looking pretty sweet  :(

Way to go Dom, you snatched both of them from me for just two more dollars. I'm not upset anymore, now that I know you got them.
Enjoy them buddy and show some pictures, if you decide to mount them.

Sal,
       I knew you were gunning for them, but I just couldn't pass them up... they're in mint condition, too!
I got the gold and silver, and the gold frame to go with the plates.  As you know I have the silver frame so I now have 2 complete sets.  I also have the 9/0 handles in gold and silver.  As long as a 9/0 in the lighthouse box doesn't pop up, it's all yours.  I'm gonna keep some dough in the bank for a bit ;)
You know you're next in line for them if I decide to get rid of 'em,
Dom
