Great site here, I got steered this way looking for a way to reassemble a Penn 320 GTI from when I was given the advise to just pull all the screws off the reel handle side and pull apart...
Lots of little pieces in that reel..

Thanks for the tutorial on the Penn reel and I've been now doing a few other bait casters with help from here.

Coming up on retirement in a year or so, hoping to get out and do a bit of Lake Superior fishing along with the smaller lakes, enjoy fishing for just about anything, but Musky's/northerns, walleyes and crappies are at the top of my list, but Trout and Salmon are gaining ground..

Been in HVAC/Appliance repair since the early 70's so if I can maybe help someone please feel free to ask.

Welcome Al. As a troubleshooter and fixer, this should be easy for you.

Visit often, stay long.

Glad to have you aboard Al. I guess when you talk about the smaller lakes you mean Lakes Huron, Ontario, Michigan and Erie?

Hehe...I had something even a bit smaller than them in mind, one of our 10,000 lakes

But I am hoping to get over to Mich once or twice this summer.

Thanks for the welcome btw.

Welcome from your next door neighbor in Wisconsin. If I get done rewiring my boat by next summer maybe we could go troll for salmon out of Milwaukee sometime.
