Penn Fathom II 80LD2 22.68kg 41–16cm 4.2:1/1.6:1 5BB

Penn Fathom II 80LD2 — Built for Serious Saltwater Battles

The Penn Fathom II 80LD2 is a right-hand lever drag (LD) multiplier reel engineered for heavy offshore and big-game sea fishing, combining a rock-solid aluminium frame with smooth, reliable drag performance.

Strength You Can Feel in the Frame

The one-piece machined aluminium frame and side plate are integrated into a single palm-width body, making the reel noticeably more compact and rigid than traditional multi-part designs. That structural integrity directly transfers power from the stainless steel main and pinion gears to the forged and machined aluminium spool — keeping you in control when a large fish runs hard.

Precise Drag Control with the Dura-Drag System

The Dura-Drag™ system delivers up to 22.68 kg (50 lb) of maximum drag pressure with exceptional consistency. The Pull-To-Turn pre-set knob lets you dial in your drag threshold before the fight starts and eliminates accidental adjustment under pressure. Once a fish is on, the Quick-Shift II™ two-speed system lets you switch between a 4.2:1 high gear (41 cm per turn) for fast retrieves and a 1.6:1 low gear (16 cm per turn) for grinding power when you need maximum torque.

The Penn Fathom II Lever Drag range is available in a single size configuration. All key features — Dura-Drag™, Quick-Shift II™ two-speed, one-piece aluminium frame — are shared across the line.
