Hi

[icantdo55]

New guy here.  I'm going to try and rebuild some of my grandfathers penn reels from the 60s and I was pointed to you all for the knowledge.  I have a penn senator 4/0 60's I believe (green handle) going to need rebuilt. 

Thanks

Hi from Hi. A 113-4/0. Could be older. A great trolling winch.

Hi Mike, do you intend beach fishing or boat fishing, do you have any other reels, & welcome from Sunny Western Australia, cheers Don.

Clean, grease and lube properly. Replace the drag washers with a 5 stack squidder set or get a set from Bryan or Lee.

The stainless Long Beach 67 spool is pretty cheap to replace the old heavy brass spool.

You can get a tiburon frame, accurate frame, newell bars and a base, or a graphite penn base with the top bar.

You can even get the old Newell yellowtail special bars and base with a stainless Long Beach 66 spool for a smaller reel.

A great reel with lots of potential. Slow speed to not kill you with a bigger fish.

Welcome.

Welcome! I'd wager that 113 and LB's caught more headboat fish on the East Coast than everything else combined. For sure in NC.
