bospa357 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I'm scaling way back for the upcoming 2009 season. Realistically, there's no way I'll use everything. I'll start with a few conv items. Everything is including shipping. Payment is to be cash, check or money order(preferred over check for no wait in shipping). Please. No trades. First is a very, very nice Penn Mag 970. This is a sweet reel that includes the box, paperwork, wrench, lube and spare foot. Hard to find one elsewhere in this condition. GONE Next is an NIB ABU 5500C Sunset Orange levelwind. Box paperwork, wrench and lube as well as spare blocks. GONE Lastly for right now, is an ABU 7000HSN Big Game. The side labels are gone. Includes the box, paperwork and a set of Xtreme Smoothie drag washers. This is the 5.3:1 narrow frame. Lightly used, but in great condition. GONE Maybe more to come in a day or two.

bospa357 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 ABU 7000 is spoken for. PM with info on the way hamlet. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegDunlop Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Wow that Penn is cool. I've never seen a Penn like that. Were they trying to copy Abu at the time? if we're looking for a shark we're not gonna find him on the land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bospa357 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yes, they are very cool indeed. I wouldn't say they were trying to copy ABU at all. This reel is like a supercharged Squidder Jr. Casts like a dream quite frankly. I have another one that gets used quite a bit and they are quite unique to say the least. They were made in the 970 (this one), a 980 (the size of the 140 Squidder), and the 990 (close to the size of a Jigmaster) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Knife Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I will take the Abu 7000 !!!! Good grab...awesome reel....... If this falls through let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamlet Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I'd second that squidder comparison. I have a Penn 980 Mag... one step wider than this 970, and it's very much like a magged squidder in feel ... maybe a touch beefier. I never birdnest the thing, and the mag control stays set... can't accidentally move or change it. I won't tolerate your intolerance, because I hate hate.

canyondiver Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 The 970 is a smokin reel! I have a 980 and it is great. Li8ke a great casting Squidder, but with an adjustable mag and an extremely solid frame. Someone buy it because I am broke, and I might sell my kidney for this!! Proud to be a NERB and I have the shirts to prove it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bospa357 Posted November 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 The ABU 5500C Sunset Orange has been traded to chunk here; http://stripersonline.com/surftalk/s...d.php?t=623794 and is no longer available. Penn Mag 970 is all that's left on this thread. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
