Description

The PENN® Spinfisher® VII Spinning features IPX5 sealing so whether it gets hit with a wave, or you let it ride in the spray all the way home, you don't have to worry about saltwater getting into the gearbox or drag system. Our HT-100™ drag washers are housed in a fully sealed spool to give the stopping power needed for big saltwater fish. A Full Metal Body and sideplate keep the CNC Gear System in precise alignment under heavy loads. Available in standard, Live Liner, and Long Cast models.

Field Notes

Use this spinning reel for inshore saltwater fishing where spray or wave exposure is likely. The IPX5 sealing helps protect the gearbox and drag, making it suitable for targeting larger saltwater species under heavy load.

Pros

  • IPX5 sealing for spray/wave exposure
  • HT-100 drag washers for strong stopping power
  • Full metal body and sideplate for precise gear alignment
  • Sealed spool design helps protect drag system

Cons

  • Spinning reel (not ideal for anglers who prefer baitcasting)
  • Saltwater-focused design may be overkill for freshwater-only use

Not worth the money I bought this reel to only find out that its GARBAGE. Went threw 3 spools of line in 6 lb test ,8 lb and even 10 lb all had to be taken off the reel .When you go to cast out the line shreds its self off the spool like I never seen before ...been fishin 50 yrs.NO the spool was NOT over filled .After hearing my issue another guy said samething happen to him exact reel .The reel doesnt spool the line on the spool in the way it suppose to ...so it will cast .Same exact line all work on my Shimano reels ...all work perfect same exact line.I always thought Penn was top of the line and found out different. Bought the reel pole combo my brother has same pole broke it 3 cast...this Penn reel and pole is GARBAGE...no box for the reel either.Buy SHIMANO trust me on this one.I am calling Penn to get my refund for 3 spools of line today.
