Penn Fathom Baitcasting Reel 400LP 6.2:1 Left

Penn Fathom 400 — Unmatched power for big saltwater predators

The Penn Fathom 400 Low Profile baitcast reel delivers the serious torque and durability you need to battle the ocean's toughest fish. Built with a full metal body, synchronized drag and level-wind system, and a brass main gear, this left-hand retrieve model is purpose-built for vertical jigging, inchiku, tataki, and trolling in saltwater.

Full metal body and drivetrain for uncompromising strength

The Fathom 400's full metal body and right side plate paired with a brass main gear and bearing-supported bronze pinion create a drivetrain with exceptional power and rigidity. This construction handles high loads and hard runs without flex, giving you confidence when fighting large amberjack, grouper, or tuna.

Synchronized drag and level-wind system exclusive to the 400 size

Unlike the 200 and 300 sizes, the Fathom 400 features a synchronized drag and level-wind system that maintains consistent line lay even under maximum drag pressure. The TiN (Titanium Nitride) coated level-wind system resists corrosion and ensures smooth line flow, while the HT-100 drag delivers 11.3 kg of stopping power with carbon fiber washers for consistent, fade-free performance.
