You're all nuts. :-*
x2 ;D


Dominick, you have lots of hills there, let Wayne sit in a wagon and roll him dowhill. He appears to be the right size around 200lb.
Wayne, if the line or drags give up, I want you to know that I really enjoyed having you here....don't forget the helmet ;)
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

It's too hot to halter up one of the sheep to test the reels.
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

We need Shrek the sheep with 60 lbs of wool. 
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Ah Shrek - NZ's most beloved sheep (sadly passed away a couple of years back) ;)

Hey, Hey, Hey!!!

I seem to be getting dragged into this conversation!

Wayne

And dragged you will, literally, if Dominick has his way. ::)  BTW Wayne, did you go fishing over Fathers Day weekend? ;)

Thank you,

I think I still have washers for a 7+1 349H drag stack.

Sal,
I finally sat down and read every post to this thread. In all of your pics, I have never seen ss dogs.
Is this double dogged with the brass ones only?
I Have my kit coming from the Boss. I am going double ss dogs, stainless sleeve, 5+1 Ht-100 stack, black pearl gears, ss yoke from smooth drag and stainless handle from fishing reel 079.
I think I have it covered. I am going to leave the outside rings chrome to match the aluminum handle.
How should I spool this beast?
I still can't get over Dominick catching a 150lb Marlin on this reel!
You should take credit where credit is due my friend. All Hail Sal!
What's the deal with Penn recognizing the Tank?
I hope they don't come up with some lame version of yours.
Take Care.
Life is Good!

G'day SH, they're S/S from the get-go (ie in the first pic).
Looking forward to seeing your Tank come together.

Daron, you're giving me too much credit, I did not make the reel, my hero Henze did. All I did was to experiment with some things and up to now they seem to work, this one happens to be the perfect size for us to explore.
I know there are reels out there that already come with all of these features, BUT, they're not the Tank ;).
About loading it, send Dominick a message, he'll be happy to let you know. I'm not sure if he used 60lb or 80lb braid.
Take pictures of your tank and post them.
Later buddy.

Thanks Justin,
I guess its the glare from the red plate that makes them look brass.
My Tank kit from The Boss Came today. Time for some double doggin!

I'm still waiting on the ss yoke from Dawn. This is going to be FUN!
I thought I had all the parts but the yoke, but this drag kit has me puzzled. Me and reely gone had some words on this, but I think its the right one. I originally ordered this for a 6/0 black. I know I need the 113 hsp. The other one on the left is for a 114hs from scotts. I think its mis labeled.
While we are on the subject, I need a drag kit for a regular black plate 4/0. I can't seem to find the kit at scotts. I found one on ebay, but is 23 bucks. I think that's a little steep.
I'm getting in over my head here and I seem to be forgetting the basics.
Too many projects at once. :P

I thought Dawn at SmoothDrag has the drag kit you need. Have you checked with Dawn?
