REEL INFO:
GLS Series - The lightweight strength of a one piece graphite frame. The power and precision of Penn's International style lever drag system. Only one reel can give you both - the American made Penn GLS Series. Built tough inside and out and out with features like machined stainless steel gears, sealed stainless steel ball bearings and machined, black anodized aluminum spools, GLS reels are ready to take on all comers. The 25GLS is ideal when bait or jig fishing for tarpon, cobie, stripers or school tuna. The larger 45GLS gives you the power and line capacity to fight against strong species such as wahoo, sailfish or striped marlin. (2000 Penn Catalog)

11/30/2024 This is the spot if you fix Penn reels. What a awesome shop. Great website. Schematics of reels on hand with available parts list. Best shop around. Since you can't walk into Penn reels in Philly anymore, this is the next best thing. Thanks for your services!!!!! Even parts for vintage reels. Delivery is super quick as well.
10/23/2024 Easy to order parts and they shipped fast. Great seller! Hope to do business with them again! If you do not find what you are looking for do a Google search with Mystic Reel Parts in the search with your model. I have a Penn 285 and 9 and it took me to the exact page for both. Also have the reel schematics.

I luckily found MysticParts via a Google search. Their website is comprehensive and I was at a loss on what I needed. Fortunately the “contact us” option was user friendly. To my delight I got a personalized and VERY helpful response right away. She asked questions to fully understand my needs and then followed up with links to the right parts. We continued our email exchange regarding my second reel issue and, again, she was extremely knowledgeable and gave me both practical as well as professional solutions.
If you need reel parts and assistance with repair and maintenance, do not hesitate to work with them.
