Tiburon frame and spool and Cortez Conversions side plates all machined out of solid blocks of aluminum, hand polished and anodized.  Cortez Conversions stainless steel double dogs and sleeve.  Shown with one of my other favorites, an Accurate 146 Squidder for size comparison.

How much line did you get on that reel Randy? Enough to hit bottom at Woods Hole?

Well, as luck would have it, our fishing day was a BUST, winds at 35 mph, gusts to 41, seas 12-13 feet at 9 seconds, so I called Randy Pauley to join us for lunch at our own Fred's-Acclaimed Taco Temple, and he obliged.



Randy brings black backpack??  I asked WHY??

THIS IS WHY!!!!!!! ;D



The Black Beauty Custom Tib'd & Cortez Conversions side plates, internals parts Penn 20/0 classic reel!!!!



AND I GOT TO HOLD IT IN MY HANDS!!!!!   What a day!

Here is our own Randy Pauly with his 1 of 20 Custom Penn 20/0 reels IN THE WORLD!!!!!



People enjoying their lunch HAD NOT idea why we were ogling over this reel, Not a clue,





Here is the stranded fishing crew!   Jonathan (theswimmer), Randy Pauly, and Me!!!!



And check out this vid!!!!   Hear the snapping sounds of the SS double dogs clicking into gear!!!!



Enjoy cause WE SURE DID!!!!

Walking back to his car, I asked does Randy have a name for his 20/0 Shelf Queen???  I suggested the BLACK BEAUTY, the BLACK WIDOW, the BLACK MOMBA....

Randy stops, and says....    Beyoncé

thanks, Randy for your time, lunch was great.
