[Alto Mare]

I believe I can help you out there Bill, just get them shipped to one of your buddy on the block and pick them up when the wife is food shopping or buying shoes . Shhh! don't tell anyone

NYOB----My "favorite and Go To" is a 112H with spacer bars, 20lb test, and a Penn Californian C870C 7' that I bought as a combo from Turner's in Riverside, CA...it will bottom fish, toss irons and live bait way better that my skill set will allow...would love to get two more, but just need to figure how to get them in the house.... ....Bill

Bill, what spool do you have in your 112H?

Considering I have 30# Big Game coming out the ears, I'll stick with it for a while. Thanks for all the help, now I'm just waiting on the mail man.

I gotta ask, Ron, what is the mail man bringing?  If you get one of the Tuna Special kits, let us know how it goes.  Also, I would like to know the width of the frame.
Thanks,
George

Right now all he's bringing is carbon fiber drags. I'm sure I'll get a few other goodies for this one though.

Looks to be black anodized aluminum () with the number 112H-1 on the side.

I missed that you bought it at Turners!! I grew up buying stuff at turners. Like, the current store is the "new" store to me. When my friends wanted GI Joe at Toys R Us, I wanted to go to Turners. Funny, I'm still playing with my toys, 40 year olds playing with GI Joe are, well, maybe their is one or two on here so I'll shut up now!!

Bill, That's a nice outfit you have.  I hope you didn't disassemble your reel to get the answer.  Your photos gave the illusion that your reel was a widened version.

Bryan,

If you have a 505 gear set with 5+1 drag set up laying around and could stick it on a stainless sleeve that would be cool, just give me a quote. I'm gonna give a go at turning a knob and milling a handle on my own. I'm thinking stainless and Koa would look spectacular. I'm debating on reel clamps, I like the idea of the Penn metal ones but I have never seen one.

Thanks
Ron

Jigmaster spools are not interchangeable with 112H spools, the 112 slightly larger in diameter.  A Penn 60/65 spool is the right diameter but the shafts are too short to use on a 112. One of these days I'll figure out how to put a 60 width spool in a 112H.  

I have a few 112H reels, one a 112H narrow, I like them as well as Jigmasters for light trolling, not as well for bottom fish or live bait albacore fishing.

George and Sal are giving good advice here.

Sal, SS dogs for Jigmasters and 112H reels are drawn, I need to get some of the right thickness material and then they will be cut.

And when you figure it out, please let me know.   I would also like a narrowed 112H, because I'm a narrow minded guy.

Yea, same here.
I'm sure that there are a few combinations that we could come up with, I have parts to play with but I do not have any gears .

Lee, it's great that you're cutting the dogs for the 112H, I'll take the usual. Could you also cut the ones for the Surfmaster or are they too small?

George, I was looking at the 5-66 gear yesterday, you're right, I also agree that it could be pushed to 15lb,. I was thinking Jigmaster gears, that 5-66 is nice and beefy.

Lee, please put me on the list for 112H SS dogs....8 if possible. thanks!

I have several 100, 150 and 200 Surfmasters and use them, SS dogs for Surfmasters is on the short list.

[Ron Jones]

I would love a set or two of those dogs when aailable.

Thanks

It's my second busiest time of the year after lambing season (fishing, deer and elk hunting and winterising the irrigation system) but as soon as things quiet down I'll start back on shelved projects....Sal's job is first on the list.

Lee,
     I'm with Mel... I'll take 8 when ya get 'em done.  I love the versatility of this reel.  I troll, bottom fish, and cast it better than my 113h (even though it has bearings.) 
Thanks
