Penn Special Senator 114W — legendary big game power

The Penn Special Senator Star Drag 114W is the low-ratio winch that has set more IGFA world records than any other reel since 1936. Built to pull anything off the bottom, it combines marine-grade bronze gears, HT-100 drag washers, and stainless steel reinforcement for unmatched durability in saltwater big game fishing.

Proven workhorse for big game

The 2.9:1 gear ratio delivers maximum cranking power when you need to lift heavy fish from deep water. Marine-grade bronze main gear and stainless steel pinion resist corrosion and handle extreme loads, while the multi-disc star drag system with HT-100 washers provides smooth, consistent pressure up to 9.9 kg. Stainless steel frame rings prevent flex under strain, and the convertible power handle gives you leverage when it counts.

Built for decades of offshore duty

Bakelite sideplates reinforced with stainless steel rings withstand impacts and UV exposure. The machined, anodized aluminum spool holds 512 m of 0.71 mm mono or up to 1232 m of 0.86 mm braid. Two shielded stainless steel ball bearings ensure reliable performance in harsh saltwater, and the heavy-duty clicker alerts you to runs. A stainless steel reel stand mounts securely to any fighting chair or gunwale rod holder.
