Fishing Gear: Penn Fathom II Level Wind Reel

Penn Fathom II Level Wind Reel

Description and Application: The Penn Fathom II Level Wind's heavy-duty construction and powerful gears make it a true workhorse and favorite of charter boat captains and trollers. It is designed to handle extreme abuse day-in and day-out. Whether you are bottom-fishing or dragging live bait, the Fathom II will stand up to the hardest fishing conditions. A Full Metal Body keeps precise gear alignment while the Fast Gear Access Sideplate allows for easy maintenance. The Fathom II also houses our powerful HT-100 drag system to stop any fish that bites. Available in four sizes: 15, 20, 30 and 50 and in a standard configuration, line counter and both right- and lefthanded models.

Staff Perspective:I can personally vouch for the toughness of these reels as we’ve used them to troll for muskies, and when you’re dragging 12-inch-plus baits with huge metal lips, you need a reel that will handle the abuse. The Penn Fathom II will do just that without fail. I prefer the linecounter version for our trolling efforts, and of course the deep spool comes in handy—this reel is a tool anglers everywhere will find handy. It’s a workhorse indeed.

Cost:$239.95-$289.95
