Description

The Penn Spinfisher 8500 SSV is a spinning reel from the fifth generation of the Spinfisher series, a line Penn describes as building on fifty years of tough spinning reel design. This revamped version includes several major upgrades over earlier models. The reel features a thicker heavy duty bail wire for added strength and durability, infinite anti-reverse, and enhanced gear ratios. It runs on five shielded stainless steel ball bearings. The sealed and oversized HT-100 Slammer drag system is paired with a sealed body design, and the reel uses a stainless steel mainshaft and alloy main gear. The Superline Spool has a rubber gasket that keeps superline from spinning, so no backing is needed. - Ball bearings: 5+1 - Mono capacity (yd/lb): 440/20, 300/30, 250/40 - Braid capacity (yd/lb): 430/40, 360/50, 320/65 - Drag type: Front drag - Drag material: HT-100 - Max drag: 35lbs / 15.8kg - Spool material: Aluminium
