REEL INFO:  A free spool Universal salt water reel of standard size for deep sea, surf, pier, boat and bay fishing. The #80 was equipped with Penn's lightweight Easy-Cast spool which produced long casts and reduced backlashes. In addition, this reel was corrosion proof and a great line saver. (1950 Penn Catalog)
