It is specified for saltwater, with a corrosion-resistant graphite frame and stainless steel gears and bearings. The supplier also describes use for large freshwater predators, so the series is not limited to the sea. Choose the size by line capacity, maximum drag and reel weight rather than water type alone.
The 16VS is lightest at 1091 g with 11.7 kg maximum drag. The 30VSW increases these to 1332 g and 14.5 kg, while the 50VSW reaches 1576 g and 18.1 kg. At 0.54 mm mono diameter, capacities are 495, 950 and 1420 m respectively, so more line reserve and drag come with more weight.
Quick-Shift provides a high and a low gear in every size. The ratios are 4.5:1 / 2.1:1 on 16VS, 4.2:1 / 1.8:1 on 30VSW and 2.9:1 / 1.5:1 on 50VSW. The higher gear retrieves faster, while the lower gear helps when lifting heavy weights or fighting large fish. The 50VSW has the lowest gearing of the three.
All three listed variants have right-hand handles and are supplied without pre-spooled line or a spare spool. Choose these models only if you want to wind with your right hand, and allow for selecting and loading your own line before fishing.
Capacities are supplied for both monofilament and braid. Mono ratings pair metres with diameter in millimetres, while braid ratings pair yards with breaking strain in pounds, so compare like-for-like ratings when choosing a size. The aluminum Live Spindle spool has rings at one-third, two-thirds and full capacity to help check the line level.

The PENN Squall Lever Drag 2 Speed is a right-hand conventional sea fishing reel for large saltwater fish. The supplier also describes use for large freshwater predators. Its Quick-Shift 2 speed system lets you choose between faster retrieval and a lower gear for lifting heavy weights or fighting large fish. The adjustable lever drag and Dura-Drag system deliver smooth line release during prolonged fights.
The lightweight graphite frame and sideplates reduce weight and resist corrosion. Stainless steel main and pinion gears transmit the load, while four stainless steel bearings support the rotating components. A double-dog anti-reverse mechanism prevents backward handle rotation, with the specification listing Multi-Stop anti-reverse.
The Live Spindle spool is forged and machined aluminum. Line Capacity Rings show one-third, two-thirds and full spool levels, helping you check how much line remains. All three versions have a Black Gold finish, a right-hand handle, no pre-spooled line and no spare spool. Choose your line and spool the reel before use.
The 16VS is the lightest option at 1091 g, with size IGFA16 and 11.7 kg maximum drag. Its 4.5:1 / 2.1:1 gearing is paired with supplier-listed retrieval of 39 / 18 cm per turn in high / low gear. Monofilament capacity is 995 m at 0.38 mm, 665 m at 0.46 mm or 495 m at 0.54 mm. Choose it when lower reel weight matters more than the larger models' drag and line reserves.
The 30VSW balances increased capacity and drag with a weight of 1332 g. Size IGFA30 provides 14.5 kg maximum drag, 4.2:1 / 1.8:1 gearing and supplier-listed retrieval of 41 / 18 cm per turn. Monofilament capacity is 1275 m at 0.46 mm, 950 m at 0.54 mm or 545 m at 0.71 mm. It offers more capacity at comparable line diameters than the 16VS, without the weight of the 50VSW.
The 50VSW has the greatest line capacity and maximum drag in the family, at 18.1 kg, but weighs 1576 g. Size IGFA50 has lower 2.9:1 / 1.5:1 gearing and supplier-listed retrieval of 33 / 17 cm per turn. Monofilament capacity is 1420 m at 0.54 mm, 815 m at 0.71 mm or 515 m at 0.89 mm. Choose it for the largest line reserve and highest drag specification, accepting the extra weight and slower retrieval.
Braid capacity also increases across the three sizes. The supplier lists capacities in yards / pounds: 16VS at 1490/30, 1040/50 and 865/65, 30VSW at 1995/50, 1660/65 and 1435/80, and 50VSW at 2485/65, 2145/80 and 1835/100. These are length / breaking-strain combinations, not line-diameter ratings.
