The first thing I bought after boot camp in 1982 was a Penn reel on a Shakespeare Ugly Stick. A good friend just went through the reel fixing it, as it has been broken for a while. My friend even loaded the spool with new 12 lb monofilament line. The old pole it was on is out in the garage, but it is worn out and falling apart. I can't wait to put this reel on a new pole and catch some fish with it this year. I'll be posting the fish pictures in this thread.

This is actually a shot my wife took, a double exposure the 1st of a abandoned 50's Plymouth 4-door in winter, the 2nd is of her sunflowers taken with a snowflake mask. I think it looks like a flaming car at 1st glance.
