I have four Penn international 30 reels that need to be serviced :o what's the going rate for service on these reels ??? this is going to be fun :-\
It depends on where and who is doing the service. From what I've seen, prices range from $20 to $120 plus parts.
Hey Bryan I'm doing them for a friend.they don't look to bad one needs a new clicker assembly.how much should I charge just to clean and grease and such.

A very good friend, no charge
A good friend, let him pay for parts
Just a friend $30 for both...if not in bad shape.
..............Just my 2 cents ;).
Well Said Sal! ;)
Just an acquaintance was thinking thirty per reel plus parts if they r not heavily corroded.
Thanks guys I need a few of these.
An acquaintance? $30 but he should include a 12 pack of beer.
Here are a few picks of the 30t note all the old grease build up, he said they have never been serviced before.so far no salt intrusion in the reel, just a bit on the screws. I would like to have a set of these some day .

I'm not sure what the drags are made of ??? kind of looks like it's woven, but it is hard as a rock and slick as a baby's but :-\
Those are my favorite internationals 2nd gen. Probably early ht-100
okay I have it all put back together,but the clicker sounds like a sick dog. I noticed that the clicker ring was a little warn does this have anything to do with it ???
I find that International clicker noise has always been all over the map..
I have put in new clicker plates, new springs in the clicker assy and still had light clicker noise.
Most of the ones I service, I stretch or shim the spring to get more tension on it to increase the noise. I am sure that accelerates the wear on the clicker plate, however.
Thanks for the reply, I have only one left out of four and they all sound the same. Just ordered a new clicker assembly for one that was missing, wow 32.00 :o
That's why I love the Senators. The clickers are very loud! With an aluminum spool, its even louder.
That's what I'm saying :'(
