Recently bought this 114HL. Need a little info if anyone has it. What's with the red spool? And where to get a burgundy side plate without the drag stack exposed?

Bob, don't do anything to that reel, put it on a shelf and shop for another.

I agree with Sal, put it in your collection and find another one to fish with.  Anniversary reel from about 1982.

Didn't know when I was buying it that it was an anniversary type. When Sal, Rob and John chime in as such. Well...I guess this one is going to be a display reel. Now back to shopping a 114H to hopefully get a narrow kit to get the full house of narrows. Thanks for the heads up guys.

The red spool, and chrome spacer bars were on the anniversary reels. If your lucky the original gears are still in it. Penn advertised they were Stainless steel. I bought one a while back just like it. I should have kept it original but the spool went to a friend. I probably increased the value of yours.  ;D   Bob

I did crack it open. They are the brass type. You an tell this reel has never been opened befor. It pristine inside. Looks all original. When I get a chance I'll post more pics tomorrow.

Bob, I've bought a couple of anniversary reels and none of them had brass gears.  :(  My bet is someone changed them out. That's always a chance with a used reel.  Bob

Bob is right. It doesn't surprise me that someone swapt the gears, I've probably been talking too much around here :-\.
John is spot on, that reel is from 82, Penn 50th anniversary. The chromed bars only lasted two years, might be three I don't remember.
The reel came with the red spool and stainless steel gears. Still a nice reel ;).

Bob, If they are brass, I have a set out of an anniversary reel I'll send you. They are in a reel now but when the BP gears are here I'm going to swap them out.  Bob
