Title: A Tease for Shark Hunter
Post by: handi2 on October 28, 2014, 09:10:18 PM
I've had this Penn 14/0 for a long time and surely being in a wheelchair I never used it. It was spooled up and never used by the person I traded reel work for.

It's in mint condition and it shows. I opened it today and the internals are like new. I serviced the reel greasing everything and under the rings. Metal polished all the chrome and got it greasy again. HT-100 drags.

It comes with all new hardware that was never mounted. It's mighty cool.

Its not really for sale but if Shark Hunter makes the right offer....???

Cheers

Good Looking reel Keith. I'm all set on 14's. All these are double dogged and two of them have stainless sleeves. One came from Sal. ;)
I took in 3 more since I took this picture. ;D

If I had the money right now I'd try to beat you out of that reel myself. I do enjoy the eye candy though Keith.

D, I wouldn't know what to do with a 14/0 reel. It out weighs most of the fish I catch anyway ;D I will actually get to use a 4/0 next year as it looks like we are going to get to fish 365' deep off the California coast as long as the boat has a fish release mechanism to release the fish 100' down. I had a blast catching my 22# Ling on my 500  ;D Them small Tuna and Yellowtail we got on the SOA trip I can easily handle with what I have and if I need bigger I can ask Alan for a spare, providing he brings them  ;D ;D ;D

For the fishing I do Tim, This reel is what is in order. A winch. I kayak out a big piece of Stingray or Bonita, Mullet, Bluefish or whatever I know lives in the Gulf and Hold On!
There is something to be said, to reel in a Beast with a 40 year old reel! ;)
You are on my Christmas list Buddy. A Penn Hat! ;D
