Title: Penn 245LD
Post by: Donnyboat on November 20, 2019, 02:18:03 AM
Hi every one, I hope your all keeping well & catching fish. I just brought a used 245LD reel, just striping it, can anyone tell me if the Chrome posts will slide out of the graphite please they have quite a bit of virtigus & patarna, & I dont want to soak the graphite in the 50/50 mix incase I remove any of the writing, the wrest of the reel looks really good I picked it up for AU$40.00 including postage, I also brought a Diawa sea line 900H yesterday for AU$50.00 including postage, it has a bent handle arm or blade, I have some 9/0 handles that I think will fit staight on if I cant straighten the original. cheers Don. & thanks in advance.

Its all good, I have removed the posts, after I removed some of the grime, I worked out how to slide the posts out, cheers Don.
