Post by: Megalops on July 08, 2012, 01:31:28 AM

Just logged on for the first time. I enjoy reviving old or broken reels & look forward to getting some great advice on the board.

Just got what I think is a good deal on Ebay-five reels in need of repair (but cosmetically sound) for $182:
-Daiwa Saltist STTLD50
-Penn Battle 6000
- Penn Battle 4000
- Penn 330 GT2
- Penn 320 GT2

I look forward to tackling these 5-will probably need some advice along the way.

Great to be here!

I don't know about the other reels, but the 320GT2 is my wife's favorite, and it's a formidable reel in it's own right. Check out Alan's tutorial on it.

BTW welcome aboard.
