Compare capacity at your line diameter, maximum drag and weight. The 10XN weighs 445 g with 9.0 kg maximum drag, while the 60N and 80 reach 22.6 kg. The 80 holds 385 m of 0.76 mm mono against 275 m on the 60N, so it offers more line at that diameter but a slower high gear.
Quick-Shift II™ provides two gear ratios, allowing faster line pickup in the higher gear and easier winding under load in the lower gear. The Pull-To-Turn preset knob prevents accidental drag changes, while the lever operates the Dura-Drag™ brake. Select the ratio pair that suits your winding needs.
The 15XN, 25N, 30 and 40N have left- and right-hand BENT T HANDLE versions. Their listed weight, capacity, gearing and maximum drag match within each size. The 10XN, 15, 60N and 80 in this family are right-hand models, so choose by the hand you use to wind.
One is designated FTHII10XNLD2 CV REL BX, the other FTHII10XNLD2 BENT T HANDLE. Both have a right-hand retrieve, weigh 445 g and share 6.2:1 / 2.8:1 gearing and 9.0 kg maximum drag. Choose the BENT T HANDLE version when you want the explicitly specified bent T-handle, rather than expecting a capacity or drag difference.
No. Every variant is listed as not pre-spooled and without a spare spool. Mono and braid capacities are supplied for the aluminium spool, so choose your line using the stated diameter or breaking-strain capacity and spool it before use.
A waterproof rating is not supplied. The family is specified for saltwater and uses stainless steel gears and bearings, which support its sea-fishing role, but those materials do not establish sealed construction. Do not choose it on the assumption that it has a certified waterproof housing.

The PENN FATHOM II Lever Drag 2 Speed family consists of conventional saltwater reels with a lever-operated Dura-Drag™ system and Quick-Shift II™ two-speed gearing. The higher gear picks up line faster, while the lower gear reduces the effort needed to wind under load. Choose the size by line capacity, maximum drag and reel weight, then select the required retrieve hand and handle version.
The Pull-To-Turn preset knob prevents accidental changes to the drag setting. A one-piece machined aluminium frame and integrated palm-side plate support the gears while keeping the reel compact in the hand. Stainless steel main and pinion gears transmit the winding load, and the forged and machined aluminium spool carries the line. The family has five stainless steel bearings. These are saltwater reels, but the supplied specifications do not establish a waterproof rating.
The table compares one supplied monofilament capacity for each size. Full mono and braid capacities are listed with each variant. Capacity must be compared at the stated line diameter, not by reel size alone.
| Size | Gear ratios | Maximum drag | Weight | Mono capacity | Retrieve hand | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 10XN | 6.2:1 / 2.8:1 | 9.0 kg | 445 g | 320 m / 0.28 mm | Right | | 15 | 6.2:1 / 2.8:1 | 9.0 kg | 471 g | 470 m / 0.29 mm | Right | | 15XN | 5.5:1 / 2.8:1 | 14.9 kg | 530 g | 610 m / 0.29 mm | Left or right | | 25N | 5.5:1 / 2.8:1 | 14.9 kg | 570 g | 300 m / 0.46 mm | Left or right | | 30 | 5.5:1 / 2.8:1 | 14.9 kg | 575 g | 370 m / 0.49 mm | Left or right | | 40N | 6.0:1 / 1.9:1 | 18.1 kg | 683 g | 375 m / 0.54 mm | Left or right | | 60N | 5.1:1 / 1.6:1 | 22.6 kg | 907 g | 310 m / 0.71 mm | Right | | 80 | 4.2:1 / 1.6:1 | 22.6 kg | 905 g | 385 m / 0.76 mm | Right |
The 10XN is the lightest option. The 15 offers 470 m of 0.29 mm mono, compared with 300 m at that diameter on the 10XN, for 26 g more weight. The 15XN adds capacity and drag over the 15, at an extra 59 g. The 25N and 30 share their gearing and maximum drag, but the 30 holds 300 m of 0.54 mm mono against 225 m on the 25N, for just 5 g more weight.
The 40N adds drag and has a lower second gear than the 25N and 30. The 60N and 80 provide the family's highest maximum drag and a 1.6:1 low gear for winding under load. At the same 0.76 mm mono diameter, the 80 holds 385 m against 275 m on the 60N. Its high gear is slower, and its stated weight is 2 g lower. Sizes 60 and 80 also have a removable top spacer bar and lugs.
All listed models except the FTHII10XNLD2 CV REL BX version are identified as BENT T HANDLE. The bent T-handle provides a shaped grip for winding. Both 10XN versions have the same supplied weight, gearing, drag and capacities, so the version designation is the key distinction. Left-hand versions are available in 15XN, 25N, 30 and 40N, with the same listed specifications as their right-hand counterparts. Choose the hand you want to wind with.
Every variant is Black Silver, has Multi-Stop anti-reverse, comes without pre-spooled line and has no spare spool. Both monofilament and braid capacities are supplied, so select and spool your line before fishing. Supplier use descriptions include boat fishing, natural-bait and lure fishing, with jigging and trolling named for some models. No lure-weight limits or specific rod compatibility are supplied.
