For Sale: Unusual aluminum Penn 501 spool!

[Vintage Offshore Tackle]

This is the second one of these spools that I have seen in 20+ years.  It is machined out of a solid billet of aluminum and I would guess that it's virtually indestructible.  It has a very large arbor but will still probably hold 200 yards of 30 lb. Spectra.  It is in near mint condition and tested to spin true.

$67 plus $7 shipping to anywhere in the USA. ($10 less than Tiburon currently charges for a standard 501 spool).

We like to use Zelle, but if you don't, Venmo and PayPal work too.

Thanks,

Steve

Thank you Steve!  It's an interesting piece.  If ever find out the story behind it I would love to know about it.

I know it's already sold. But I'm really curious how the weight compares to the normal 501 spool.

[Crab Pot]

I'll let you know Jason!

It's billet which is cool!

I know it's already sold. But I'm really curious how the weight compares to the normal 501 spool.

The stock Penn aluminum 29L-501 weighs 2.9 oz.  The billet aluminum spool weighs 4.9 oz.
