Trust me when I tell you that you really don't want a 705, you just think you do. Penn made a halfassed attempt to convert a right handed reel into a leftie. The crosswind arm is the main culprit. It tends to separate from the main gear when a load is put on the drag and will lock up the reel.
Thanks for the advise buddy. What do you recommend??
Get a newer model Penn and just switch the handle over.
Penn 650ss or 750ss. But if you really want a 705 get one. Love mine, upgraded drags and let the drag work em.
sent PM.
my friend had that problem so hes going to just learn how to be a righty while fishing, if your interested in those kind of reels thats what u should do

Steve, you and Dave were identical twins, seperated at birth. Just like in the movie...
