The PENN Fathom lever drag 2-speed series of reels allows the angler to change the speed of retrieve quickly ensuring complete control when fighting a hard fighting fish or retrieving heavy terminal tackle from far below. It’s line capacity for the largest model (FTH60LDHS) is 735 yards of 100 lb braid. Penn makes fantastic fishing tackle and the Fathom is no exception. The 15 size suits itself well for deepwater fluke, tautog, cod and striped bass here in the Northeast, whereas larger sizes fit home for trolling and offshore use. PENN Fathom reels are built with all the quality and performance normally associated with PENN Reels. The Penn Fathom 2-speed reel is the equivalent of the Shimano Talica II reel and both of these reels are great for large and small tunafrom Blackfin to Yellowfin and up to the mighty Bluefin. Its low gear setting retrieves at a much slower pace with greater torque when that next monster is dogging you towards structure, whereas its high speed retrieve assists with getting your lure/bait back to the boat quicker and also assists when the fish starts swimming towards you. A full metal body, as well as a stainless steel main and pinion gear, have this reel built to last for years to come. Lightweight, powerful, and equipped with a 2-speed mechanism, the Penn Fathom Lever Drag 2-Speed Conventional Reels are a great option for anglers targeting nearshore and offshore species.
