Penn Pursuit IV 5000, first reel I ever bought about 5 years ago when I first started. Haven’t maintained it til now. What do I need to do? Corrosion doesn’t look too bad and used it recently and it was able to handle small sharks/anything else I pulled up.

It’s salvageable just gonna take some effort. Still a good reel
In the past i have cleaned with a degreaser spray, then reapplied grease (I have used penn and Generic Marine grease) and oil bearings, Penn makes a kit with both.
