Penn Fathom II Star Drag Reel 30 6.1:1 570g 13.6kg 107cm

Penn Fathom II Star Drag 30 — Built for Deep-Water Power

The Penn Fathom II 30 combines a rigid full-metal construction with fast gear access and a proven HT-100 drag system, giving you the torque and reliability to winch up hard-fighting fish from the depths.

Full Metal Durability Meets Easy Serviceability

Machined from marine-grade bronze and hardened stainless steel, the Fathom II 30's drivetrain is built to handle saltwater punishment. The fast gear access sideplate lets you service the gears and Versa-Drag system quickly in the field, so you spend less time on maintenance and more time fishing.

Effortless Casting and Serious Stopping Power

The Live Spindle design with free-floating spool delivers long, smooth casts with minimal effort, while the 6.1:1 gear ratio and 13.6 kg max drag give you the muscle to control big fish. Seven shielded stainless steel bearings (including an instant anti-reverse bearing) ensure fluid performance under load, and line capacity rings help you monitor your remaining line at a glance.

Choose the Right Variant

The Fathom II Star Drag family is available in five sizes to match your target species and fishing depth:
