Penn 2021 Slammer IV 4 High Speed Spinning Fishing Reel 8500HS

Designed for anglers who target the hardest fighting sportfish, PENN's new Slammer IV spinning range takes the ultimate workhorse reel to another level.

Building off a proven platform of an IPX6 sealed body and spool from the Slammer III range, PENN has redesigned the Dura-Drag system in the Slammer IV to not only be better sealed, but also offer a wider range of usable drag, all while being bearing supported for extra smoothness. HT-100 drag technology is packed into the small, but tough, 2500 size, a new and highly sought-after addition to the Slammer family.

Whether you're live baiting in the surf, spinning from the rocks, popper fishing a coral reef, deepwater jigging or switchbaiting a billfish, the Slammer IV range won't let you down. Let the battle begin.
