What more can I say? I’ve been fishing with Penn reels for 35 yrs and will fish with nothing else.

Excellent fishing rod and reel

7’ Light Inshore Prevail II - Received item and box packaging was subpar but there was zero damage to rod. First impression was that it’s a good looking rod, lightweight, grippy, reels seats perfectly, all guides are perfectly in line, and action is fast. I will be using it with a Penn Battle II 2500 for smallmouth/shoal bass fishing in rivers and light inshore. Very happy with my purchase and was a very attractive price point @ $38. It will be heavily used soon when Spring arrives. Will update review if my experience with this rod goes downhill.

As described

Purchased this setup to go after snapper in the gulf. It handled everything very well with 50lb braid with a 50lb topshot. Brought up plenty of grouper as well. No need to spend big money to get just the right reel and rod because you just found it. Buy this set up and you will be happy. Saved $20 on pennoutlet.com’s over local shops but did have to wait a week or so for it to arrive.

Use for drum fishing. Handles 35 inch reds no problem, excellent drag and high retrieve. Reel is sealed well so no issue using in salt. Will buy more of these
