The 2500 weighs 343 g and holds 160 m of 0.28 mm mono, while the 4000 weighs 420 g and holds 200 m of 0.31 mm mono. The 6000 and 8000 increase maximum drag to 11.3 and 13.6 kg at 675 and 893 g. Match capacity at your chosen line diameter first, then compare the weight you will be handling.
Live Liner is the freespool function for letting a fish take line before the fight. During the fight, the front-mounted HT-100 carbon fiber drag controls line release. This separates bait presentation from fighting drag, rather than requiring the same drag setting for both stages.
Yes. Every size has an aluminium spool, specified capacities for mono and braid, and a right/left handle position. Choose your line type and diameter using the capacity table, then fit the handle on your preferred side.
No. The 2500 and 4000 have a 6.2:1 ratio and retrieve 83 and 93 cm per turn. The 6000 retrieves 104 cm at 5.6:1, and the 8000 retrieves 112 cm at 5.3:1. Compare the stated retrieve per turn when line pickup is the deciding factor.
All four sizes are specified for saltwater. The 8000 is also explicitly described for freshwater, surf fishing and sea jigging with heavy rigs or large lures. Its supplier recommends a fresh-water rinse after saltwater use, so sealed bearings should not be treated as a reason to skip care.

The PENN Fierce V Live Liner is a saltwater spinning reel with a Live Liner freespool function for bait fishing in inshore and nearshore water. Its full metal body and sideplate resist flex under load and keep the gears aligned when fighting fish. Four sizes let you balance reel weight against line capacity and maximum drag.
The Live Liner function lets a fish take line before the fight, while the front-mounted HT-100 carbon fiber drag washers provide controlled drag pressure during the fight. Instant Anti-Reverse prevents backward handle movement. The handle can be fitted for right- or left-hand retrieve, so each size accommodates either preference.
CNC Gear technology provides precision-machined gear engagement. A machined/forged aluminium main gear and brass pinion transmit the load, supported by the metal body and sideplate. Four sealed stainless steel ball bearings help protect against corrosion and keep the retrieve smooth. The specified total bearing count is five. All sizes have an aluminium spool, a revised spool design and a modernised body, in Red/Black.
The 2500 is the lightest option at 343 g. The 4000 increases mono capacity and drag while retaining the 6.2:1 ratio, at 420 g. The 6000 offers more capacity for thicker line and 11.3 kg maximum drag, but weighs 675 g. The 8000 provides the greatest capacity and drag in this family, at 893 g. Its lower gear ratio still retrieves the most line per turn. Choose by the diameter and length of line your setup needs as well as the weight you want to handle, not gear ratio alone.
Size | Gear ratio | Weight | Maximum drag | Retrieve per turn | Mono capacity | Braid capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2500 | 6.2:1 | 343 g | 5.4 kg | 83 cm | 160 m / 0.28 mm | 200 m / 0.25 mm |
4000 | 6.2:1 | 420 g | 6.8 kg | 93 cm | 200 m / 0.31 mm | 240 m / 0.29 mm |
6000 | 5.6:1 | 675 g | 11.3 kg | 104 cm | 210 m / 0.46 mm | 355 m / 0.38 mm |
8000 | 5.3:1 | 893 g | 13.6 kg | 112 cm | 285 m / 0.48 mm | 355 m / 0.46 mm |
The 8000 is also described for freshwater use, surf fishing and sea jigging from shore or boat, including heavy rigs and large lures. Its supplier names sea bass, turbot and mackerel as examples of intended species. These additional applications are documented for the 8000, not for every size.
For the 8000, the supplier recommends rinsing with fresh water after saltwater use. Sealed ball bearings support corrosion protection but do not establish that the complete reel is waterproof.
