Please note, you will see many spooling options for the reels listed below. It's not our intent to confuse folks, but you do have options here unlike some places and we take pride in the fact we can rig things according to your needs, applications and preferences. We have been pioneers in Super Braid / Spectra rigging and we offer a few methods of rigging the lines together beyond most retailers capability, including the standard long range Bimini to Albright knots, Served and Sato connections. We do not use simple uni-to-uni knots for connecting braid to leader, we take the time to make a better knot, one that will hold up over time and deal with larger fish. Simpler knots don't work as well. You can see videos of what we do on our YouTube channel - CharkBaitUSA. We can upgrade that connection to one of several options, the benefit with those connections is that the diameter is thinner and that allows the line to flow through your rod's guides more smoothly, has less resistance in the water and is stealthier. If you have questions regarding rigging, please give us a call or zap back an email and we can go over things with you.

In keeping with our style of doing business, we don't post things that we don't actually have in stock. That's one reason why the images you see on our site are our own, not the manufacturer's photos. If you see an image of a product, you know we actually have the piece in stock. Well, after over a year's worth of waiting we finally received the new Torque spinning reels!  First glance, they are beautiful, first feel, smooth and confidence inspiring. They are strong, look at the shaft in the picture...they are very strong and capable, and Penn took their time testing, refining and improving the reels prior to their introduction, that's a very good thing. At this point in time, only about 50 are able to be produced each month, the limitation is the specific design and extraordinary hardness of the gears.

Penn's Torque Spinner is so typically a Penn International...at their best. Solid, strong, workhorse, these are adjectives that have described Internationals through the years, and the Torque Spinner is no different. It features a fully machined aluminum body, completely sealed, preventing sand and contaminant intrusion. The water tight frame has 7+1 stainless steel bearings for smoothness, and they are the right kind of bearings for the use intended. The reel features Penn's patented Versa-Drag system, allowing you to tune the drag for your particular style of fishing. And, just as you might have hoped,  the drag is sealed, too. There's an integral clutch sleeve to eliminate any back-pay during a hook set. The one-piece aluminum frame is complemented with a forged aluminum spool and sideplates. Torque's have machine cut bronze main gears, and hardened stainless steel pinion gears. The bail is made from stainless steel, and features a unique push button selector for automatic or manual trip. You can even make the reel "bail-less" with an accessory kit. The reel is made to fish Spectra, it's got the strength for it, it was made for it. That's a very nice feature, to actually have a choice. Most manufacturers assume they know how you'll fish their spinning reels. Penn gives you a choice, recognizing that there are times for both styles of use.

I have to say, I'd love to own and fish this reel. You can't appreciate it until you hold it, it feels like a Penn. It's all International. Looking at its competition, Penn's new Torque series stacks up very well and the pricing is realistic, in fact a comparative value. Based on construction and materials, value, the Penn folks have made a reel a lot of us would like to own and fish. Proof is in the pudd'n, but with all the field-testing (sea-testing?) done prior to release, this reel is darn impressive.

Penn Spinfisher V
Special: Free SUPER BRAID Spooling!

300 Yards FREE BRAID

Get 300 yards of top quality Gel Spun Braid Spooling at no extra charge with these innovative new reels. Choose from inshore brown, multi color depth finder or uncolored white in line tests from 20# or more.

Long awaited and desired, deservedly so, Penn's upgrade Spinfisher V heralds the return of a standard and it's better than ever thought possible at anywhere near the price that Penn has positioned these new reels. We have never seen a stronger value in a spinning reel - NEVER. The original Spinfisher was designed 50 years ago, and set a standard by which all other saltwater spinners have been compared. This the fifth generation of the Spinfisher is indeed the best one ever produced. There are a lot of key features on this family of reels, some of the key points include a water tight design, with a total of 6 seals (9 on the Liveliner reels which arrive in 2013). An offshore spinning reel should be expected to get wet, and even if you dunk yours in the surf or have it hanging in a rod holder on boat getting sprayed all day, you should not have to worry about saltwater getting into the gearbox or drag system. With the Spinfisher, it can deal with the unexpected, fact is it's anticipated and planned for. The reels have a full metal body and sideplate, that keeps your gears aligned even under a heavy load. And, the drag...system is super with three HT 100's, greased for smoothness and longevity (and this represents one change from the old Penn days). Like many of Penn's newer designs, there's a Superline Spool with a rubber gasket on the spool's spindle to prevent your braid from slipping - an excellent feature more reel manufacturers should consider adding. You also have line capacity rings on the spool so you have less guesswork about how much line you have on your reel while in the midst of the fight of your life. This feature can also help guide you when spooling your reel. The bail is heavy duty, thicker aluminum for added strength and durability. There are 5 shielded stainless steel bearings in the reels, with infinite anti-reverse (with a back up dog on the 7500 - 10500 sizes (9500 & 10500 available in 2013). There's much more to boast about with these new reels from a technical standpoint, but we also need the mention the value: $139 to $199! (please note expected delivery dates on reels not yet in stock).

Conquer!

Here's a unique spinning reel that should reawaken some very serious interest in this legendary manufacturers spinning line-up. The list of features is impressive, but most impressive is the feel of this excellent new reel. It's the best I've seen from Penn in the world of spinning tackle for several years, and is the tip of the iceberg. Here are a few of the features:

- EAS Easy Access System: allows maintenance hatch to be lowered to access key internal parts for lubrication. Simple feature, that will make your reel easier to maintain and longer living. Maintenance on most spinners is a major problem, there's no access for lubrication, this reel makes that drudgery easy.
- Eternal Alloy - The spool lip is made from a proprietary metal that resists dents and scratches, and as a result maintains it's casting distance over the life of the reel. This is a revolutionary material that provides performance far exceeding any other material. It's
- Superline Spool - No backing needed because of the rubber gasket installed to the spool. This reel is made for Spectra use, from the ground up. From the standpoint of spooling up, to the drags, it's ready for Spectra.
- Patented one-piece machined aluminum gear box - This is a metal reel, not plastic fantastic.
- Forged, machined, and anodized aluminum spool
- Machine-cut alloy main gear
- HT-100 drag washers provide smooth drag under heavy loads
- 10 shielded stainless steel ball bearings
- Infinite anti-reverse
- Spectra ready, to handle the strain that braided lines put on a reel.
- Friction trip ramp prevents premature bail trip when casting.

These are just a few of the features that distinguish this new spinning reel. It is a dandy! And, we're very confident you'll like this piece too.

There are four sizes of this excellent new reel. Here are the specs:

New for 2011
Penn Fierce & Battle
Special: Free Spooling - Free Shipping!

Here's another pair of excellent new reels from the folks at Penn, the Fierce and the Battle. Penn has finally begun showing the benefits of their change in ownership, the new models are arriving, field tests are over, product is flowing, and the new gear is well planned and execuited. Penn's on a roll for 2011, and we're excited to see and show off the new gear!
(not to mention own, since a couple of the guys working here have already plopped down their $ on some of the new reels)

Fierce
Penn's new Fierce offers unprecedented value and performance in a moderately priced spinning reel. The new reels run well under $100, yet they offer a full metal body and sideplate, strength to keep precise gear alignment under heavy loads. They feature a machined and anodized aluminum spool, stainless steel main shaft, four stainless steel ball bearings, infinate anti reverse and a Techno-balanced roter for smooth retrieves. Their handle is ergonomic, made from machined and anodized aluminum with a soft touch knob. Check the specs...

Battle
Penn's new Battle offers a lot, high speed, high drag enhanced with HT 100's, and smooth performance. The most noticeable enhancements over the Fierce are the use of HT100 drag washers and the overall feel of the reel - it's more robust in keeping with its intended heavier use of braided "super lines." The Battle is tough, made with a full metal body and sideplate for greater rigidity under heavy load - better gear alignment is the big benefit. The Battle incorporates Penn's Superline Spool, no backing is required for use with Spectra because of the rubber gasket that keeps the line from slipping on the spool! The spool is made from machined aluminum, anodized for long life in a harsh saltwater environment. You also have the big benefit of HT 100's, one of the best drag washers available, providing smooth performance under high loads. You have a stainless steel main shaft, six sealed stainless steel ball bearings for longer life and less problems with saltwater intrusion, an infinite anti-0reverse and Techno-balanced rotor for smooth retrieves. The handle is made from machined aluminum, anodized for long life, and with a soft touch knob. Nice reel, very good performance, nothing short of an excellent value. Darn amazing what you can buy for under $150!

Penn Metal Slammer & Slammer Live Liner

Penn's Slammer series of spinning reels are made for saltwater anglers needing a little help with their casting, whether it be due to lighter weight bait, artificials, or simply the inherent ease of tossing your offering more easily. While we often overlook spinning tackle here on the Left Coast, it's a mistake. I've been on too many boats and seen too many jackpots won with spinners. The reason for their bad-rap out here is the lack of quality. Penn's addressed that one, and certainly Accurate also has done a lot to change folks opinions. Penn's Slammer series are some of the best reels a guy can own, if you're seeking the benefits spinning tackle offers. The 760 model specifically is large enough, tough enough, to get the job done well. And, their newest model, the 760 Live Liner, offers bait fishermen the benefit of "freespooling" a bait!

Penn Spinfisher® SS Spinning Reels
SKIRTED SPOOL SPINNING REELS

The SS series have been around a long time and have been a standard by which to judge spinning reels for saltwater use. They are rugged, durable, parts accessibility and drag capability have made them winners among dedicated anglers. Penn shifted production in 2006 and did some updating of the line-up, adding to their value and performance. They've earned high marks for ruggedness and reliability, as well as typical excellent Penn parts support. The selected reels feature a skirted spool design which allows for greater line capacity, longer casts and less line related problems. They also feature balanced 4.6:1 gear ratios, graphite housings, HT100 drag material, anodized aluminum spools, and stainless steel ball bearings.  If you use spinning gear, you'll be pleased with this series of products from Penn.   They're rock solid performers.

When the Going Gets Tough. Big fish are tough, but Penn's Spinfisher® SS spinning reels are even tougher. They feature either forged or machined gold anodized aluminum skirted spools for strength and durability. The heavy duty Spinfisher® SSM (Metal) models have rugged die-cast black enameled aluminum housings and rotors. All other Spinfisher® SSG (Graphite) reels feature lightweight yet strong corrosion proof graphite housings and rotors.

Skirted Spool Performance. The skirted spools on Penn Spinfisher® SS reels not only look great, they serve multiple purposes. Like greater line capacity, longer casts and fewer tangles, to name a few. This design also helps keep contaminants away from the internal reel components.

What a Drag! Built right into the spool, Penn's proven multi-disc HT-100™ drag system won't let you down when a trophy size gamefish is on the line. An infinitely adjustable drag control knob lets you fine tune the drag pressure to suit the situation. Penn's 950SSG (available July '06), also known as "The Big Mama," features a specially designed oversized drag with a single International®-style washer underneath the spool. Light action 420SSG and 430SSG model Spinfishers® have spools that can be released with the push of a button for quick, easy line changes.

Inner Strength. Inside each Spinfisher® SS reel is a network of parts that makes these reels exceptionally strong and solid. A stainless steel main shaft, supported by bronze bushings, extends from the spool drag knob through the entire housing. Extra cranking power is delivered by powerful, corrosion resistant main and pinion gears, built to last for the long haul. For smoothness under pressure, Spinfisher® SS reels feature up to four stainless steel ball bearings.
