Title: Penn 349 Head Plate Needed (Red/Burgandy)
Post by: handi2 on May 26, 2015, 11:49:02 PM
Like the title says I need one badly. I broke one today while spooling and not keeping up with the tension control. :-\

Thank you,

Keith

Hi Keith --

Have one left in burgundy -- NOS -- not sure if it is the style you need, however...

No extra hole for the second lever, if you need that -- although it could be drilled.

You are welcome to it, if it would work -- N/C.

I could send it along with the Pflueger parts -- if you have had a chance to figure out what you need yet.

Let me know.

If this is completely wrong, Lee might have one also.

Best,

Fred

Fred that is the correct plate..! I will not let you send it to me for free. I do need the handle for that old reel.

PM inbound.

Thank you,

Keith

No, Keith --

No charge.

We all screw up from time to time -- and last year when I made a rookie mistake, and broke Aiala's sideplate on her "99" -- there were more than a few folks who quickly offered me one at no charge -- and Randy sent me one -- Gratis.

As we work together to help each other when needed -- there will be little shortage of parts available.

Just got to keep paying it forward -- like you have already done so many times.

When you get a chance to send me an email on the other Pflueger stuff needed -- I will box everything up and send this plate along also.

Best,

Fred
