Penn Squall Lever Drag 2-Speed IGFA16 — Lightweight Power for Big Game

The Penn Squall Lever Drag 2-Speed IGFA16 brings proven International reel technology into a corrosion-resistant graphite frame. Purpose-built for saltwater big game fishing, it combines the smooth Dura-Drag system with Quick-Shift 2-speed gearing to handle powerful runs and deep lifts with equal confidence.

Graphite Construction for All-Day Comfort

The lightweight graphite frame and sideplates keep the reel weight at just 1091 g, reducing fatigue during extended fights. Graphite's natural corrosion resistance stands up to saltwater exposure, while the forged and machined aluminum spool with line capacity rings provides both strength and at-a-glance line monitoring.

Quick-Shift 2-Speed for Tactical Advantage

Switch instantly between 4.5:1 high gear (39 cm per turn) for fast retrieve and 2.1:1 low gear (18 cm per turn) for maximum cranking power. The stainless steel main and pinion gears deliver reliable torque when you need to move stubborn fish, while 4 stainless steel bearings and double-dog anti-reverse ensure smooth operation and solid hooksets.
