Great post! I have the 750SS in a bin somewhere....totally worn out. The green 706 I fish occasionally was in Paul's shed during Frederick. He dumped all his flooded reels into a drum and covered with used motor oil until months later when he finally had time to go thru his tackle (after rebuilding houses etc). I saw the reel and gave him 10 bucks for it. That is still my favorite reel to catch a king on! Launching Panga in a bit.

I bet Tater has 'blown out' more green 706 spools than everyone else combined on the GSPPier combined ;-) LOL

Pull the elevator out, move to rail, get shuttled out to octi via kayak and take ride up. Sounds simple to me..

I like it I like it a lot Hell I was thinking about a whole new pier down at the Romar parking lot-make it just like Navarre no shade no benches throw a couple port o lets out Little shack with some biscuits and basic tackle goods Let Gainer be the pier manager🤣🤣
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
