Back Bay ABU & Penn Combo

mako20ft · July 11, 2010

Received as part of trade some time back. The ABU5500 is completely torn down (100%) and serviced by me with new pinion gear, carbontex drag, ABU power handle (original paddle comes along as well) and synthetic grease. Machine spooled with Spider Wire 20lb braid, new.

Rod is Penn Alaskan Premier Series 2pc (even) 8'-6" 12-30lb line and 1/2 to 2-1/2oz rating. Cork with trigger handle is in great shape, Fuji components are all fine and the tip newly replaced. The ratings are accurate btw.

I have caught up to 7lb blues and a nice bass just under 19lbs. Never felt I needed more but this wasn't used around boulders either. Very lightweight and used primarily for walking the bay where I live.

Price(s) are fair and firm. Penn rod for $55 picked up or $65 shipped (I have a proper tube already). The ABU with extras is $70 picked up but I'll ship on my dime. Take the combo for $115 picked up or $125 shipped in US. I don't have Paypal. Check is fine provided you allow time for it to clear.
