Penn International VISW Trolling Reel 30 1590g 13.6kg 4.1:1

Penn International VISW 30 — Precision USA-Built Power for Big-Game Trolling

The Penn International VI 30 VISW delivers the strength and smoothness big-game anglers demand, machined from aircraft-grade aluminum in Penn's Philadelphia facility and equipped with a Quick-Shift II 2-speed system for tactical gear changes during the fight.

Dual-Speed Advantage for Changing Conditions

The Quick-Shift II 2-speed system gives you 4.1:1 high speed (104 cm per turn) to chase down fast-running tuna or recover line quickly, then instantly drop to 1.4:1 low gear (36 cm per turn) when you need maximum cranking power against stubborn fish in deep water or heavy current.

Dura-Drag Reliability Under Extreme Pressure

Penn's Dura-Drag system eliminates the hesitation and sticking common in lesser drags, delivering smooth, consistent pressure from initial strike through the entire fight. The 13.6 kg max drag is backed by a stainless steel gear train and Versa-Strike adjustable strike stop to protect tippets during aggressive hits.
