At some point the 704 705 720 and 722 were all a light shade of blue towards the end of the run with the the 706 707 710 711 712 713 714 and 716 a dark green. The 722 was a similar light blue but it was more aqua green

This is my penn peer 209lh. Got this for walleye about a year ago.  I have a arm injury so im not able to reel with my right hand. Apologies for the upside down pictures. Not sure exactly how to rotate the pictures.
Some days you catch fish. Other days you catch a cold.

 Nice lefty 209. Likely 70's era. They made so few of the lefty 209's, they were still using 1950's cavity molds for these sideplates up into the 80's.

We were fishing about 50 miles offshore in the Gulf catching some decent snappers and groupers. My buddy is reeling in something and says "this fish isn't fighting much", a minute later this happens. Old Penn rod n reel, chum bag, some shells and coral all attached together. He didn't want it so I'm going to hang it on the wall in my garage, it will surely make my wife happy since it's got a nice aroma to it ;D ;D ;D
God, Family and Fishing, what else is there?

Couple screws, a little oil, that'll buff right out!
Do what you can with that you have where you are

A good vinegar soak and a completely different reel and it will be good to go 🤣🤣
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

Good catch !  It's amazing what's down there, ain't it ?!
There's nothing wrong with a few "F's" on your record....Food, Fun, Flowers, Fishing, Friends, and Fun....to name just a few !

Looks like it once was a 112h senator. Send that baby to Mo and he'll bring it back to its former glory !
