Que complicado 😐 , no se porque desarme el reel

Tony, I don’t have any of these but I have collected all the MLZ Shimanos. I have two 10s, 20, 40, two 50s, and two 69s. I like the MLZ a lot. I don’t care for fast-cast reels because of the AR setup. These ones like yours are very nice looking reel\s. The MLZ reels also only have a pinion bearing. -Good video! - Chris

I did not know that a Mitchell Pro is actually a French Mitchell. I collect the saltwater Mitchells and have about 70 of them in my collection. I admit to having at the least disdain and at most outright contempt for the way Pure Fishing uses and abuses the Mitchell name to try to market what are absolutely not true Mitchells. They should use a different name or something. There are some high end saltwater Mitchells such as the 498 Pro or ProX that I am very familiar with. I have seven 498s in four different models but all are French.using shim washers in spinning reels is an art form. I’m getting better at it but it takes finesse to do it right. I own many of what Mitchell calls their “Sport” models including the 396, 486, 488, 496, and 498. I’ve got all of them. They are not as different from the originals as the 300 Pro appears to be. I have used the Briwning housing plate seals in all my big saltwater Mitchells. Browning added these seals when they briefly owned Mitchell after Mitchell went bankrupt. A lot of the cosmetics that Mitchell added to these newer models is sort of uniform across their entire model line. I like that feature since it helps you to recognize them easier. I have a 300A, C, and S that have differences from the original model. Other Mitchell models do this. An example would be the 306A - a reel I like a lot. Tony, this was a great video as I did not know the 300 Pro. - Chris. PS.. Mitchell over-engineering is legendary!

Hi Tony, I just got a Fin Nor Ahab 20 for my vintage spinning reel collection and for surf fishing. From what I’ve been able to find out there are very few if any parts available for these Ahab reels. Did you know that now that Pure Fishing has Fin Nor they are using the brand just to market a line of Fin Nor sunglasses. This made me sick! Very good video though I do have a few questions. - Chris

I have a Mitchell 300 I bought in the 70s

You know Mitchell was the one company that gave Penn a run for their money. Outstanding design (a little fancy for the longevity of a Penn) but I still have my father’s first Mitchell. I custom painted it sadly but that’s what boys do at 13. 😂 I might just stop making my videos and just watch yours! You really do a great job - coming from the village idiot, I hope you see the compliment in there.

Wow!! Very nice! I only know of one other person who has one of these gems in that condition. He doesnt want to let go of his either! I don’t blame him.

Ok Tony - I’ve now watched THREE of your videos and haven’t recorded one in weeks! I’m no shamed into getting back to work! lol. You give great advice man. ❤❤ The original No*49 started in 1940 or 41 The 49A is simply wider and some have a white spool. You can get a 49A out of a trash can in South Africa. I have a friend who travels there.

Man, if you find the 112h with the outside drag access- you can swap the thick asbestos drag washers for the carbon fiber and add two metal ( I swap all the brass for stainless) and you can get a 5+5 drag stack! Great video sir!

Hi Tony! Have you ever done a video on your workspace? I enjoy cleaning my own reels and I’d like to set aside my own space in my house to work on them (besides the dinner table). What minimums would you recommend for a workspace, or what would your ideal workspace look like if that’s not what you already have?

Hey Tony, some day we’ll have to get my bench and your bench together 😂😂 I wonder how many 33’s I destroyed before I learned how to put them back together. Great video! ❤❤

There Is a guy selling those reels on Facebook RN if I not misreaded EDIT I misreaded he was just showing them

I still use these reels. The narrow spool Penn 49 you can Cast it near Empty not leaving much line to play your fish. Penn 49A takes nearly takes double the amount of line. I use 40lb monofilament on it. In the older days they used much heavier line. Beautiful reels 👍🤠

I have actually had pieces rechromed on vintage reels. Not an inexpensive process and if they're badly pitted i wouldn't do it. If the pitting is light the chemical process of getting back down to pure brass will deal with most all of it. Have all the exterior pieces chrome plated on a vintage penn reel in my area is anywhere from $100-$150. You can also have pieces nickel plated for a lot less and the nickel plating holds up quite well.

Hi Tony! I was looking for a BG20 video and found this one. I started collecting the Daiwa BG reels about three months ago. My BG20 came in today and it is a beauty. I have six of the BG reels now - BG90 (with wobble), BG60, BG30, BG20, and two BG10 reels. The handle knob is rosewood and I’m pretty sure it is illegal to use that wood any longer because the tree is endangered. You’re right though, they are gorgeous handles. I hall all the Daiwa silver series reels (two sets), the GS series, and now these BG reels. The BG are by far the best of all these though I love them all. The BG reels all have three bearings while earlier ones do not. The exception are the Daiwa 8600 and 8700 which are worm gear reels that have three bearings. These 8000/ series Daiwas predated all these other series. I enjoyed your video! Don’t you like the BG anti-reverse system. - Chris

I neld you take apart a mitchell 303 cleaning reel and then reassemble them very meticulously with every detail and post it on you tube for everyone to learn more for me that's amazing thank you so much

Yo, thank you I found my grandpa’s old rod and it had this reel. My dad left and the reel didn’t work. I appreciate you for sharing your wisdom with me.

Have you considered an ultra sonic cleaner? Would have been great for a reel like this.

I Enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for the interesting content.

Glad you're back!

Where is the serial number on it?

Thank you.

Hey Tony, this video was very helpful. Although, when I finished my reel the free spool seemed very stiff compared to yours. Any thoughts on why this might be? Thank you! Yours - 25:16

I used to use oil on the gear spindle, but I switched to grease for better corrosion protection and because grease wont run off as easily or it wont migrate down. This video helped me get my reel back together and I learned that the 330 GT2 is basically the same except for the dog spring

What size is the ball bearing?

I was planning on just changing my drag washers then I messed everything up so I decided to service the whole thing. This video really helped.

This video was EXACTLY what I was looking for! Well done and thank you!

I notice this one has the optional cork arbor! Exceptional tutorial!!

I am amazed at the quality of the working parts of these reels. Brass gear---machined pinion gear and more. Everything in these is top shelf!!

Thanks so much. A how to doesn’t get much better than this!

Does it wobble?

If the posts are too corroded sand them down and cover them with black shrink wrap tubing !

Any good places to get parts? I just realize I’m missing the shim that goes under the spool

Are you able to service my Penn Peer 309?

These are one of the best cheap reels ever made. Simple design.....Little to break....Just keep lubed....I have picked up many at flea markets for $5.....Slow retrieve gear ratio, so better for bait fishing. I still have my rusty one from when I was a kid...and used in salt water. Caught some 5 lb Sea Robbins and a Sand shark....along with probably 2000 Snapper Blues....Still works with rusty bail.

my shaft doesn’t isolate on mine I think there’s supposed to be a peg that controls the shaft motion when that gear spins and mine sheared off and my shaft does not isolate when I reel it in

Great Video, Thanks !

Your teardown and reassembly video helped me get some stuck line from under the reel and helped me fix the drag. Thank you. You've got my sub

Are the monofils on the 155s the same or similar reels?

Outstanding tutorial! It was a real life saver. Thank you!

Lucas Reel Oil (blue bottle) best stuff on the market and Made in USA. Haven’t found anything better. And Lucas Oil is proven.

My favorite reel when I was younger

Are there any other models that the Jigmaster 500 4:1 gears might fit? Thinking a 4:1 no.209 might be nice.

Awesome video I just bought one off craigslist for 30 bucks never been used I'm gonna try to clean it up 😮

Tony, I agree a lost cause! Tad

Good to be back to your site Tony! Been busy with work and school the last two months - and now all caught up and back to the fun stuff! Tad

This video legit saved my life trying to swap my dad’s old reel from right-hand reel to left-hand reel. Just seeing it taken apart and put back together. Only after I had it all taken apart did I realize all I was missing was the tiny plastic piece that sets the handle screw. It had gotten stuck and wouldn’t come out of the main gear so I thought it was unswappable until I got into the guts of it. I’m picking up the hobby after he passed away when I was a teenager so being able to use his favorite reel is very important to me. Can’t thank you enough. -Alex

Been really busy at work the last two months and have been on the absent list. Looking forward to the Quick 110 - a little tricky getting the rotor off. Tad
