Penn Fathom II 30LD2LH — Left-Hand Lever Drag Reel Built for Serious Saltwater Fishing

The Penn Fathom II 30LD2LH is a compact, robust left-hand retrieve multiplier reel (lever drag) designed for offshore and boat fishing in saltwater — delivering reliable drag performance and a two-speed system that handles everything from deep drops to hard-fighting pelagics.

Precision-Built Frame for Maximum Gear Strength

The one-piece machined aluminium frame and side plate integrate seamlessly, keeping the reel compact in the hand while providing exceptional rigidity. Stainless steel main and pinion gears ensure the drivetrain holds up under sustained saltwater pressure, whether you're jigging deep wrecks or fighting a powerful run.

Smooth, Controlled Drag With Two-Speed Versatility

The Dura-Drag™ system delivers up to 14.97 kg (33 lb) of maximum drag pressure with consistent, smooth performance throughout the strike zone. The Quick-Shift II™ two-speed system lets you switch between 5.5:1 (38 cm per turn) for fast retrieves and 2.8:1 (19 cm per turn) for maximum cranking power — ideal when a fish goes deep or runs hard. The Pull-To-Turn preset knob locks your drag setting securely, preventing accidental adjustments at the worst moment.
