I love this reel. It is an absolute beast and looks phenomenal. I feel like there is very little it will be able to handle!

I own 13 Penn rods and reels and I am very pleased with them. That being said, this particular one is not one of them. I purchased this rod 4 times and every time I received it, at least one of the guides was significantly off centered. After the last time, I reached out to Penn to see if there was anything that they would/could do because I really wanted this rod. I was instructed to fill out a warranty claim so I did. Never received a response. Reached out to Penn several times and they never returned my calls or responded to my emails. Very poor customer service. I’ve spent a lot of my hard earned money on their products and they clearly have no appreciation for their customers.

Quality is great - delivery was as promised - added braid line and set for landing halibut!

Fantastic reel at a great price. Excellent drag, smooth gearing and a pleasure to use.

Serves the purpose. Just right for 2' out rigger.

First day out on the boat it got put to the test I got into a 45 inch sturgeon and he was not happy to be hooked after 20 mins of him running under the boat and anchor and prop it bent into a U several times great pole i love it PENN is a awesome brand i also recommend the PENN slammer reel 7500 I purchased at the same time and got 65 lb power pro it fit 360 yards on it the pole also is made for braided line and I love that the reel seat is metal feels super sturdy and the grip is like tread on a tire it looks pretty cool not sure it does anything but its cool.
