Penn Senator 115L2 Reels

The Penn Senator 115L2 Star Drag Reel is very Vince Wilfork-esque – it’s big, heavy, hard hitting, yet still quick with a 2.5:1 gear ratio (for clarity’s sake, Mr. Wilfork runs a sub five second 40 yard dash – not bad for over 300 pounds). Thanks to Penn’s rugged HT-100 drag washers, the 115L2 will put out a hefty 24# drag, putting mid-sized pelagics in range as well as large bottom dwelling gamefish such as cod, pollock, grouper, and snapper. The 115L2 has a capacity that matches its size – we’re talking 625 yards of 60# mono or 1200 yards of 130# braid. We recommend monofilament for your 115L2, as the reel will perform at its best when running mono. With a reinforced graphite frame and sideplates, the Penn Senator 115L2 Star Drag Reel is lighter than previous generations, and 2 shielded stainless steel ball bearings give you a reliable retrieve.
