charlibonz Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I believe it is the Penn 707.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick706 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Black 711, worth more than any 702, 706 or 707 and rarer. Its so hard to find one in mint condition. I have seen bogus ones, people try to paint them and pass them off as originals. You have to know what to look for to not get screwed over.

ShipWrecked Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Penn 707 Greenies are hard finds like there. But if you are on the look out good things fall into your lap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still can find penns for the cheap out there. Last summer I landed 2 2 704z and 3 spare spools and 2 rotors and ton of parts 50 bucks. So you always have to ready to plug the trigger to grap it.

afishhunter Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 The Green ones are the most sought after, IMHO. OH YEA! And the size 10/0 and up trolling reels "Youth is wasted on the young." (George Bernard Shaw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdinklage Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I see people looking for 704s and 706s more than other models so I would think those are more sought after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minivin5 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 The 700 hvy duty with one piece handle is rare? What is the going price on one of these reels? What you do with your time is more important than the amount of time you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicky Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 never hear much on the 713z, seems rare Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.
