Does anyone see the need for a low speed 501 size reel?  I put one together last night and am thinking Mackinaw jigging or inshore bottom fish.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Um, wouldn't that be a 110 Senator without chrome rings? I actually love the idea, I like slow retrieve fishing.

Well I think it would be good for the striper fishing we do around here,live bait down between 20-70 feet.Those critters pull really hard all the way up,don't really need high speed cause they dig for the bottom the whole time.

Only a small differance in spool OD and wanting a 110 is what got me playing with the reels I had.  The right side for a 99 or 250 fit on a 501 frame and spool.

Mysticparts.com says they are the same. 29L-501, not available.

D'oh, you right.  I was assuming the 110 spool was a narrow 112H spool.

That's funny, I made the same mistake a couple days ago on a different thread.

This is good tomorrow I was going to ask Alan if he had SS Bridge Sleeves because I want to Newell-ize 5-1 gears. 2- Jig Master Jr & 1 Jig Master. I have the Bars, Spools & Reel Seats. 

I might put in 2 Red Spools for Sal

Do you need 3 SS gear sleeves?  PM me with your and I'll get them out.

Alan is working the next several days and may not be able to get them out.

:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Well, when I was bottom fishing off of San Nicholas Island last year, the deck crew told me to slow down, as I was reeling them in too fast.  I was using a 99 width jigmaster.  Based on that experience, I could get by with a 1:3 ratio and smaller -60 drags.  A 501 spool has enough line for that use.  Also, another member recently asked about the feasability of a slower 1:3 ratio jigmaster.

What I'm trying to say, in my own pathetic way ;) is.... yes, I think there may be a small group of old-schoolers who find it useful.  The low 1:2 gear ratio of my old 113 is one reason why I narrowed and beefed it up.  Although it has more line capacity than needed for some applications.

George

PS: as you say, all I need to do is replace the r/h plate with a -99 sideplate, which I already have.

bluefish69 - The should all be fine threaded gear sleeves.  let me know.

Others for this posting -

Isn't there a narrow version of the Long Beach 259?  I have a Long Beach 259 with 2.8:1 gear ratio.  It's the same size as the 500 (but parts are not compatable).  I tried   :(

I know you guys have the answer....
