    if that`s a penn spinfisher you have, then just service or replace the drag.

    no its the model before where the drag knob locks and normally breaks, lucky mine is still in one piece. Was looking at the Diawa 4500 saltiga surf.

    Hi. As Reggie says, nothing wrong with your Penn 750SS, they are a great reel.
    My personal favourites are the Bretton 900 series, the old Mitchell 498/499 are great reels also.
    Centre pic shows why I prefer the Brettons, larger drivetrain components than the Mitchell.
    Cheers!

    My favourite for jewies is the Alvey 700E5. and for tailor i love the 650 C5 model. both indestructible reels and allow direct feel 100% of the time.

    cheers
