The Penn Reel Specs excel doc. that Bill B posted on here is amazingly accurate. I ended up putting #50 Power Pro on the 501, the reel held 433 yards. The chart said 438 yards! I will rely on this document from now on. I am spooling by hand with a Penn line winder, as tight as the drag will allow when cranking. I've not had a problem with line slipping or digging in. Thanks again for the great information.

John, I'm happy you were able to use the table, even happier that it was fairly accurate 😉. Bill
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!
