great

Awesome reel for surf fishing larger bull redfish, large flounder, even the occasional cobia off the beach.

The rod performs well but be sure to check all the guides out because the shipping method in a flimsy cardboard box might damage the rod

Great reel, delivered on time. Though taking a couple of days to despatch it (presumably to try to make me buy Prime) is a bit sad. If it genuinely took all week to get to me because of slow post thats one thing, but holding it back so it appeared to take 5 days when actually it took three from despatch to arival....a bit mealy mouthed?

love this reel as it really does the job

These small Penn Fathom star drag reels are built like tanks. If you have use for a tough small capacity star drag reel with a brute powerful drag this small Fathom would be hard to beat.
