Penn Fathom II Level Wind Reel

Description

The Penn Fathom II Level Wind is a high-performance multiplier reel built as a durable workhorse for boat fishing and general purpose inshore angling. It is designed to be reliable under constant use, which makes it a common choice among charter boat skippers and anglers who need a reel that stands up to hard fishing. The level wind system lays line evenly across the spool on the retrieve, making the reel straightforward to use for both beginners and experienced anglers. - Full metal body and sideplates - One-piece rigid frame that keeps internal gears in alignment under pressure - Reinforced level wind system designed to prevent the line guide insert popping out - HT-100 carbon washer drag system - Dura-Drag system for smooth, consistent drag performance under pressure - Fast Gear Access Sideplate for servicing gears and drag without losing small parts - Machine-cut marine-grade bronze main gear - Hardened stainless steel pinion gear - 4+1 shielded stainless steel ball bearing system - Line Capacity Rings on the spool - Supplied with both a double paddle handle and a single power handle - Weight: 562g (19.8 oz) - Bearings: 4+1 shielded stainless steel ball bearings - Gear Ratio: 5.5:1 - Line Retrieve per Turn: 76cm (30 inches) - Max Drag Force: 13.6kg (30 lbs) - Mono Capacity (lb/yd): 15lb / 325yd, 20lb / 215yd - Braid Capacity (lb/yd): 20lb / 590yd, 30lb / 445yd The rigid metal frame keeps the gearing aligned when a fish is pulling hard, and the all-metal construction, corrosion-resistant bearings and HT-100 drag are intended to cope with the saltwater environment. With proper care, the reel is built to give years of reliable service. Its power and 5.5:1 gear ratio suit a range of UK boat and inshore work, from fishing over wrecks for cod and pollack to drifting for plaice and turbot, as well as targeting bass, rays, conger and tope. The level wind takes the guesswork out of line lay, so it works well for anyone new to multiplier reels or for those who would rather fish without worrying about thumb control.
