The Penn Fathom Star Drag Reels are designed for big water game fish. The big blue offers challenges and opportunities that anglers cannot venture into ill prepared. The new PENN Fathom Star Drag big game reels are built for the tasks at hand, be it bottom fishing, trolling or drifting live bait.
The Penn Fathom Star Drag Reel is packed with workhorse features that include a full metal body and sideplates of corrosion resistant aluminum. The main gear is composed of marine-grade bronze alloy for strength and the precision-machined pinion gear is made of stainless steel. Three shielded stainless steel ball bearings and an instant anti-reverse bearing with silent back up ratchet enhances the reel’s smooth performance.
The patented Versa-Drag system with HT-100 washers can handle the load with out jerking or heating up. The HT-100 washers have a larger drag surface than other reels in the class. The spool is highlighted with line capacity rings, giving the angler the line remaining at a glance.
Available in five sizes. All models are braid ready.
