Penn Sargus II Spinning Reel 8000 — Saltwater Power at a Manageable Weight

Built for anglers who target large saltwater species, the Penn Sargus II 8000 delivers a robust drag system and smooth retrieve in a reel that won't weigh you down during long sessions.

Serious Drag for Serious Fish

With a maximum drag of 13.6 kg and six stainless steel ball bearings, the Sargus II 8000 is engineered to handle powerful runs from big marine species. Whether you're working lures like soft baits and jigs or presenting natural baits, the drag stays consistent and controlled under pressure.

Smooth, Efficient Retrieve

The 5.3:1 gear ratio paired with 111.8 cm of line retrieved per turn means you can cover water efficiently and stay in contact with fast-moving fish. Despite its size 8000 build, the reel weighs just 853 g — a thoughtful balance of capacity and comfort for shore or boat sessions.
