Hi guys, just wondering if the Penn 850 spinfisher can be fitted with infinitive anti reverse?  I recall Stages had  an old model that was modified and then he sold it.

The back spin on the old eggbeater is starting to cause concern, particularly when casting. 

Any tackle repair gurus south of river you can direct me would be appreciated.

I've got 5 of the things (Penn S/S's) that I'd convert too that get used every time we fish, and one of the new ones. So I too am interested too. Stages reel was probably done by John Devitt?

Still love them (penns) but I also like using the recently acquired 10 and 20k Stella's. Sorry Madaff but I couldn't knock them back at the price - and they were legit too!!

I had upgrades by John Devitt as well. He machined his own anti reverse discs (?) increasing the number of sides on it from 6 to 12, or something like that, effectively halving the play in the anti reverse - but it was never "infinate". Not sure if the discs can be baught commercially or not tho.
The ssm's have infinate anti reverse and are great value - under $200 i think. Sell your ss to a collector and invest in a new one Brett

No worries Noddy I understand.

As John Devitt is out of the loop now days, send an email to Jack Erskine he too should have the multi point drag ratchets. Or as Simon say's get some new ones they are as cheap as!
