How is this possible??

thanks this helped a lot my deceased grandfather gave me one and i couldn’t figure it out

Good for seafish

Thanks. Love it.

Thanks. That was quite helpful. There didn’t seem to be a single extraneous word there.

Excellent tutorial. thanks from 9 years later

Thank you!!!!

Awesome video 🔥

With the help of your video, I rejuvenated to real’s I bought on eBay. We spent a week at the ocean in Delaware, and I can verify for 100% sure, there are no fish in the ocean.

Just what I needed, thank you 👍🍺

Thank you!!! I just scooped up a 3 vintage reels one being a surfmaster 200 and I wanted to keep for myself. Now I think I have a better understanding on how to use it.

I found a penn peer 209 on the River backlashed to death Sunday. I’m going to see if I can fix it.

Outstanding work 👏! Am new on this kind of fishing reel and you have been the ONLY one tuber who has explained everything to know and wanted to know about this awesome penn 309 reel ,thank you much for your information and well explained in great detail. Good job kiddo !

thank you thank you thank you. I just bought A penn 209 and a penn 309 used on eBay ,because, my entire family rented a large house for a week in Delaware on the beach. I haven’t been to the ocean since 1979, and I want to try saltwater fishing fir the 1st time..Both of my sons have been saltwater fishing on vacation over the past few years but I never did.. they had so much fun and got so many fish that they talked me into going this year.. I have to take these reels apart and service them since they are used. I’ve been searching KZbin for videos on how you actually operate these types of reels. I’ve never owned a casting reel…. The one reel that I have, the penn 309, I haven’t touched them yet to service them until I learn on KZbin the dos & donts.. I think I need to buy an ultrasonic cleaner to clean all of the individual parts inside, (I think). I am a many decades motorcycle junkie. And when I buy a used motorcycle I always assume everything has been neglected.Things don’t ware out, things are neglected to death.. I’m going to approach these reels the same way. I’m going to completely disassemble and clean and lube them and I needed to know what all the levers and adjustments do.. your video here is the first one I’ve been able to find on KZbin that does not assume I know everything.. but now I do know how to make adjustments to the reels.. Thanks

I’m missing that spool guard where the line goes that big u can i still use a rod with it I think it’s callled a guard idk I’ve never used these kind but I got two a medium one and big one both don’t have those u I’m seeing a guard can I still use it

Thank you! Not only is this one of a very few videos I've found on the topic but it reminded me of where I'm messing up (slimecat reels)

How do u rig it up?

Which Penn reel is that?? Thx in advance.

Very helpful video. Thank you. I just picked up a used one of these and sent it out to be serviced. Looking forward to getting it back and taking it out soon.

Turns out mine needed service 😵‍💫 open a few screw cleared out old line I can make it go far.. I finally watch the whole video today :)

Thanks great video

Finally a video that show how this type of reel works. Thank you

*Great reel, **enjoyable.fishing** recommend very smooth and I love that you can change from left hand to right hand so easily. Gave it a 4 on durability because I haven’t had it long enough to rate it. Doing good so far.*

This is the same one I have I can’t make it past 2 inches 🤬

What if my drag doesn’t tighten and i can still pull line even when I tightened to max, would that indicate a defective reel? I have the exact same one btw

I’m not sure which reel you have there but the bearings on my 5500C are not in the spool.....

Thank you sir.. good video

aye man where did you get the line guider from?

Inherited one and couldn't figure it out, thanks

Love those peen tells lost count how many i have keep them greased and oiled they will last a lifetime

What is the best line size to use for the 209 peen peer, for all around use?

Thank you

Looking to get this reel

Great thanks will do

Thought my reel was broken, thank you!

Thx man

Thank u so much u just don’t know how much I appreciate this video. I just served trough 5 videos that just show ppl casting no explanation or anything. U sir are amazing took ur time and explain everything in this 309 thank u. Now I now how to adjust everything. One question so u have to have ur thumb on the reel when casting This 309?

Help me figure out the Drag on my no. 209

Thanks a lot!

Thanks it did good job

Great video! Very informative. This helped me use my grandpa's old Penn 109 reel.

Nice vid, any rod that you recomend for that reel?

*I do a lot of slow trolling live bait for King-fish off the north Florida>>>**allabout.wiki/yzpu** i have always used TLD 15's because they hold a ton of 20LB mono because they take off 300 yards on the first run if you hook a smoker. I bought 2 of these and so far they have be flawless, and hold more line. I will buy 2 more when my other TLD's retire*

Very nice thanks for the info

I would like my old school Bantam Curado CU-200 5 bearings to do that.

Concise informative and useful. Perfect video.

is that with or without a drop of oil on the bearings?

I use the worm shaft tension thumbscrew for setting it up just like you would control the drop for a regular baitcaster, so it drops slow..is that Ok, mine is the 309.

Do you remember the part number for the bearings and drag ?
