It's a great reel. Basically the same design as a 704 but smaller. I use mine on a nine foot rod that casts lures averaging about 1 1/2 oz. (with 12#mono). I believe Penn has (stupidly) stopped making them, but you should have no trouble finding one on eBay or whatever. The only mod I would consider making is a manual bail conversion but you will have a tough time finding the conversion kit.
