Hi chuck
Don't really know about the rods but those reels really are oldies but goodies....They all have slow retrieves however.....the 155 casts well and penn long beachs were staple reels for many years back in the 60's and 70's.....give em' a good clean and oil them and they will serve you well....you got a good deal.......
rob
ps.....how is the cat?

Re: lobster reports
Good to see ya yesterday Chuck! If you decide to move come try down by me, we've got room for about 5 traps between us. I'm still thinking on how to deal with the idiot who dumped his pots on me, friggin idiot! I'll call it now, he'll reset both of them thinking he was poached. (i put his gear up in the grass)
