INT80VISWS INTERNATIONAL 80VISW REEL SLV
incl. VAT, excl.
The Penn International VISW (VI series) 80 is a precision-machined, 2-speed conventional reel engineered in Philadelphia for serious offshore trolling. With 29.4 kg of drag, a robust stainless steel gear train, and the Dura-Drag system, it delivers smooth starts and unstoppable power when battling trophy tuna, marlin, and other pelagic giants.
Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum in Penn's Philadelphia facility—home to premium reel manufacturing since 1932—the International VISW 80 features machined and anodized body and sideplates for exceptional strength-to-weight balance. Stainless steel main and pinion gears handle extreme loads, while the double-dog ratchet anti-reverse and 5 bearings ensure reliability when every turn counts.
The Dura-Drag system provides smooth, hesitation-free starts even under maximum drag settings, critical for controlling powerful runs. The Quick-Shift II 2-speed system (3.1:1 high / 1.5:1 low) lets you crank 102 cm per turn in high gear to gain line fast, then drop to low gear for brute winching power. The adjustable Versa-Strike stop fine-tunes strike response, and line-capacity rings keep you informed during long battles.
Penn's International VISW series pairs 2-speed versatility with legendary USA craftsmanship. Match reel size and drag to your target species and tackle:
