I have a Penn Clash 4000 and a Penn Slammer IV 4500. Both have auto bail trip features. Since I always flip the bail manually, I am wondering if there is a way to deactivate the auto bail trip mechanisms in these reels. If so, is it also reversible if I decide to convert back? As it gets colder and the off season has arrived for me, if it is not too difficult, I'd like to try this as an off-season project for next year.
I had posted this in the main forum but an SOL member suggested posting here as you may be able to give me the specific part identification from the schematics for these reels that I'd need to remove/modify.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
