   I own multiple Penn reels and bought this for a recent bluefin trip. This reel did better than some for twice the price. The power handle is comfortable and feels great in the hand. Two speeds are nice when you have to gear down for the big ones.

   I just ordered a Penn 60N Generation II on pennoutlet.com for an October 2023 trip and saw a YouTube video by Charkbait from 2022 entitled “the good, the bad, and the ugly.”. The presenter raves about all the Penn Fathom 2 speed reels except for the Penn Fathom 60N. The presenter says the Fathom 60N does not free-spool well at all when fishing 80 pound braid and setting drag at 25 or 30 pound. Decent free-spool is essential when dropping a knife jig down to bluefin tuna in 300 foot water depths. The problem is not an pennoutlet.com problem and it isn’t an pennoutlet.com customer problem. The problem is a Penn Reel problem exclusively. Hopefully Penn has resolved this free-spool issue by 7/2023.

   Update: I took this reel out on a 3 day trip out of San Diego during 10/23. The reel had amazing free spool when dropping 300 to 400 gram lures with 100 pound braid and100 feet 80 pound mono top shot. I even landed a small 20 lb bluefin tuna with this reel. I’d have to say this reel worked flawlessly. I’d recommend buying one.

   Good reel for the money. I can definitely feel the lack in quality compared to somthing more expensive but it’s what I expected.
