Hi guys:

I'm thinking about getting back into shark fishing again? I need to buy 2 Penn Senator 16/0 rigs complete, ready to go. The rigs must be ready to fish and in good condition. I'll pay cash for reasonably priced rigs that are just laying around the house collecting dust and taking up space.

Best and tight lines,

Good luck Norman. I will keep a look out. Everyone who has one knows what they have. I saw one go for 500 on e bay(just the reel). try that craig list. Man it is hard to find one of those old style rods with a chrome seat. No telling how many is in some old ladys house in the corner covered with junk. There are a few rod building catalogs where ya can order all the stuff. Lakeland reel seats will make you a new chromeplated brass seat. Ya can still build a ULrod for 250$ or so. Keep in mind that braided line. look at the capacity of a 12/0. 12/0 does not have the drag power. that allumium stuff will rot.

Hi Jamesk:

I was down there today and could not find a USA bait shop. I searched from Del Prado to Chaquita and only seen one bait shop with no name on it. Is the USA bait shop before Del prado or after Chaquita????? or somewhere in between?

Hi Jamesk:

I went over there this morning and found they had moved to a place on Cape Coral Parkway. I think the address of the place was 811 Cape Coral Parkway or something like that. The rig was NOT A 16/0. It was a 12/0 and he still has it for sale. I am not interested in a 12/0 rig. Only two 16/0 rigs for me. I've been there and done that too many times to trust a 12/0 rig. Thanks again, for the well meant tip. I really do appreciate it.

Best and tight lines,

Norman Bateman

Hi Jamesk:

Thanks guy, you did what you could. A 12/0 just isn't in the cards for me.

Hi guys:

Well, I guess you all know I've been looking for 2 16/0 rigs to buy? Well, I think I bought them yesterday. I don't know much about the rods except the owner says they are ready to fish. So now guys, I am looking for a 12/0 rig ready to fish for my wife. This is for my new wife Cindi. She seems to want to fish with me, so my next goal is a 12/0. If you all have one laying around gathering dust, I'm interested.

Best and tight lines,
