    Penn Baja Special Reel Service

    I have four Penn Baja Special Reels that are in need of a good service after my last trip to Baja. I know I could do the work myself, but that would not be playing into my strengths. Where is a good reputable place to send them off to be professionally serivce or maintained. Nothing broken, they just need a good clean, oil and maintenance. Thanks

    My opinions have not been bought. I do not receive any kickbacks, considerations or $$ for gear and boat recommendations.

    Might not be economical to send it to CA for service. You can service it yourself. These reels are really easy to clean and re-lube. At least open the reel and see for yourself, if it's too complicated then you can always send it in afterwards.

    The 113HN's are very easy to do yourself, but the main Penn Service Center in Philadelphia can definitely handle it for you.
