Questions about Penn Level Wind Reel 309M 1152034

How many yards of line will it hold? 20/?

Answer: No a lot more than that, the real should handle more than half of a spool of line. Its a good size real. I use braded line 80 lbs line on mine. So that said it should handle around 60 to 80 yds of 50lbs guessing.

Answer: 350 yds. 30 lb. mono

Do they come in left hand retrieval

Answer: Penn Level Wind Left Hand 209M Reel

i am rigth handed i want to kow is this reel is rigth or left

Answer: It’s both. Handle can be moved to either side

Сколько метров плетеной нити поместится на 209М ?

which model reel is this, the GT or 309m?

Answer: I own a 309m and this reel is similar but not a 309m

Answer: It looks like a 330 GT. The 309 has shiny, hard plastic end plates and doesn't have the colored model number placard on the cross-bar. The model is simply stamped on the end plate...hope this helps.

Answer: The model Penn reel I bought from Amazon was the 345GT.

Answer: all it has on the reel is 309 Level Wind

Answer: 330 GTI.

will the pen level wind reel GT 309M work well for red grouper fish. Should I use my 320penn?

Answer: Well, to expand some. Level wind reels will require maintenance to keep them in good condition due to the way they work and all the pieces/parts exposed to saltwater. I have several different sizes of Penn level winds I consistently use in saltwater for Red Snapper and Grouper with minimal if any problems. Just be sure you keep them cleaned, greased and oiled. This applies to all saltwater equipment but even more for level wind reels.

Answer: Should work great. I use mine on large halibut up to 300 pounds.

Answer: It'll work, no problem.

In the package was a small plastic bag with a hard rubber item and bolts and nuts, anyone know what these are for?

Answer: It goes under the reel on the rod and bolts the reel mount to the rod so a big fish won't pull your reel off or bend the ear of the reel mount

Answer: They’re parts of the rod clamp. It will give a much sturdier rod to reel connection than the standard fastener alone. You can also use the rod clamp to secure your rod to the boat or pier that you are fishing from. If you take a look at the parts diagram you can see how it fits together.

Answer: It secures your reel to the pole besides the clamp on the pole itself.

How much 50# mono will it hold??

Answer: I put 200yrd of 100lb braided. I would imagine 150-200yrds for 50lb mono.

Answer: I want to say one hole roll of line, Its pretty big.

Can you use 100 lb test braided line on the penn 309m level wide reel

Answer: Yes I have use 100lb braided but not mono

what is the difference between the 309m and the 309 reels?

Answer: the m stands for medium.the 309 is an awesome reel.

Will a 50lb test line work on this penn level wind 309m/mb2050c66 combo?

Answer: Are you wanting to use braid or monofilament? If you are using braid it will work just fine. 50lb monofilament will be a little bit too thick to have much line capacity and you will have issues with backlash.

Answer: Yes. I have 50 lb monofilament on mine. It's been a while since I've used it, but I want to say I have 80 yards on it.

Answer: If you use braid yes but if you do mono or carbon u won't have the yards u need to do any real fishing

Is this reel good for deep drop charters like Carolina Princess?

Answer: You can fit plenty of line on it. Really depends what kind of fish you're catching. If your bottom fishing for flounder or cod this reel is fine. If you're going after tuna I would not go with a level wind reel.

Answer: yes

Is this a 309m reel

Answer: yes

Product reviews of Penn Level Wind Reel 309M 1152034

gooslayerking : i would buy it again

awesome no complaints

Jorge : Five Stars

Recomendable

reinvestor : Nice Reel

Nice Penn Reel. Can pull in some lunkers without any problems at all.

Daniel Fitzgerald : The handle will come flying off: Clicker will stop working properly:

Tried to send reel back its junk, first the handle started moving up and down, the spool shifted back and forth catching my line between the spool and the side of reel, the clicker stopped working properly as the spools tention was not right when the spool was engaged with the clicker on.

I diss-assembled the reel, first the brass shaft the handle is attached to, that brass shaft is simply and cheeply riveted into the back plate inside the side disk. The rivet is loose causing the handle to wiggle up and down. The other side, the spool has a small shaft through its centre which also has a toothed disk which controls the clicker, ontop of that is a small brass pinion gear, that should be press fitted to the spool shaft but is not and wiggles side to side with your finger.

This Forza sports whom i bought the reel from is stating i cannot return the reel, because its been four months, i used the reel four times, often internal defects only show up after the product is used which is the case here the is still brand new with no marks at all of usage, they cannot resell it because of internal defects. All manufactures have some defective products that are missed on inspection before assembly, this is common, but not accepting a return based upon what is clearly a defective item is not an error it is shear ignorants by the retailer, since the defects are clearly visable when the unit is taken apart for proper inspection which i did. Riveted fishing reel handle shafts are a no no as over time the rivet loosens and the handle shafts constant stress from reeling in, will eventually cause the rivet to pop on the inside, and then handle and brass shaft will come flyiing out.

I am going to fight tooth and nail to get my money back or they replace the reel or amazon gives me a credit so i can purchase a new reel. The defect cannot be repaired because they will simply re rivet a new rivet into the brass plate inside the reels side housing, which again will loosen over time and break. Horrible construction and if you have a hundren lbs fish on line i can assure that handle will snap if that rivet lets go. Mine loosened after four uses of the reel. I could repair it on my lathe by drilling a centre hole on inside of the brass shaft and then tap a bolt thread, using bolt to hold onto the back plate, but that does not cure the other problem on the clicker button side where the tiny brass pinion gear is wobbling on the spool shaft. The parts involved are #3 the Bridge assembly, and # 98 the Gear Sleeve.

At the clicker end the defective part is the Level Wind Drive Gear is part number # part number 66.

gooslayerking : i would buy it again

Amazon Customer : Penn 309M will last!

This is a very simple, very reliable and very easy to use levelwind. I own several that we use for charter fishing and of all the different levelwinds we use this one is the most reliable. Classic!
