There is a dude on Craigslist that sells a lot of penn reels down near where I live.

For the love of Neptune why ? Do you need an anchor or to work out while you fish ? So many better options than outdated over weighed Internationals (tommy

Actually Ron, all the high end Penn's are still made in the USA. All the 200 dollar reels are made in China. Pretty respectable in my opinion. They didn't have to sellout to remain competitive. Unlike vanstall.

Was a joke but would it not be nice to have Penn be a 100% Made in the good ol USA?

I would pay some extra dollar dollar for the pride

I wouldn't be surprised if these ultimate fishing machine will be at show case as decoration...lol

I have lots of respect on US machining method compared to any other country of world...but they are not in consumer market...

I know some sick machining companies in US...they have been machining over 100 years. Their know-how and skill are second to none...but most of them are for defense industry...

Also there are some composite company who is not allowed to sell their product outside of US due to their secrets...
