Title: before sending me a pm or e-mail .......
Post by: alantani on May 22, 2011, 05:42:51 PM
sorry, guys, been busy as hell lately!  if you want to order parts, of course send a pm. well, actually, for parts an e-mail is even better.  but if you have a general question, please consider posting it in the appropriate board and you're likely to get help right away!  sometimes it takes me a day or two to get to the pm's.  i get 30-50 e-mails a day and i try to keep on top of them, but sometimes i get a couple of days behind on those, too!  that gets ugly!!!!  either way, your patience is appreciated.  thanks!  alan

I feel your pain Alan.  My day job has me working nights.  Today is the first day I got home before 9:00 PM.

izak, welcome!!!  i got your e-mail.  send me your address and i will send out the needle kit with a paypal request.  honestly, though, i do not think that the needle kit is really the answer to your question.

Alan

The Penn 16 International you fixed worked great...

Even being underwater (kayak story) for four weeks. Even landed a sail fish.

Until....It got slammed on a rocky sandy beach and then froze up.

Can I ship it too you?

Note I'm posting here versus PM, per your instructions.

Aloha

Dan

Alan did you get my reel?

The Penn 16 two speed.  I had the paperwork folded over and stuffed in the reel.

There is no immediate rush. Just wanted to know if you got it (shipped 11/24)'
Aloha
