    Howdy fisher folks...I've just completed my second pimped out reel. Another Penn 710. This time it's a little different than the first. This one is all polished aluminum. The spool, drag knob and handle are painted flat black. I left the bail on , but also made it bail less by grinding down a spare bail wire (not pictured). This reel was in not the greatest condition. It had lots of salt corrosion and pitting. The medallion was in bad shape too. It was a later medallion, which is basically a thin brass stamp. The earlier medallions were solid, like a coin. I stopped cleaning it because it started to chip. So here's a few pics. This one too will be going on the auction block @ Ebay. Hope you enjoy!

    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if it wasn't for my super smooth carbon drag, my 30 year old Trilene would bust!
