[QUOTE="Big_spur, post: 208603, member: 5091"] I just posted a reply but for some reason it did not post. Here's the short version. $50 is probably too much for a Penn Long Beach. Penn GTI's are OK but I think they have too much plastic (including internally). I recommend an old Penn Senator 113. You can pick one up on E-Bay or Craigslist for $50-60. Make sure the spool is in good condition with no pitting. The spools are expensive to replace. An Senator will last forever if you take care of it. They are much better than the new ones, in my book. I buy, refurbish, and sell old Penns from time-to-timeand have worked on/owned most of the old Penns. Sorry but I don't have any 113s for sale right now. [/QUOTE]
