Title: Penn 14/0 upgraded crank system
Post by: Easybreezey on June 16, 2025, 11:55:53 PM
Good afternoon all, I have an idea for a new reel design specifically for big game fishing. I am going to try to work it out on a Penn 14/0 that I have not fished in a few years due to upgrading my set ups. Everything still works fine. However, I would not say I'm an expert on the ole senator, I've taken it apart to service a few times. I'm looking to lengthen the shaft on the clicker side and make a few modifications. If anyone is particularly intrigued or bored and wants to assist with the project give me a shout! Thank you

I'm intrigued to know more, it will have to be fairly transformative given the entire game fishing world has moved on to 2-speed lever drags nowadays.
