Penn Squall Lever Drag 2 Speed IGFA30 — Lightweight Power for Big Game

The Penn Squall Lever Drag 2 Speed IGFA30 combines the proven technology of Penn's International series with a lightweight graphite construction, delivering reliable performance for targeting large saltwater predators without the fatigue.

Quick-Shift 2-Speed System for Versatile Fighting

The Quick-Shift system lets you switch instantly between high-speed retrieve (4.2:1, 104 cm per turn) and low-speed power mode (1.8:1, 46 cm per turn). Crank fast to gain line or drop into low gear when you need maximum leverage against stubborn fish. Stainless steel main and pinion gears handle the torque of heavy loads and prolonged battles.

Dura-Drag Performance and Corrosion-Resistant Build

The Dura-Drag system delivers smooth, consistent pressure throughout the fight, even during long runs. Graphite frame and sideplates keep the reel lightweight (1332 g) while resisting saltwater corrosion. The forged and machined aluminum spool features line capacity rings so you always know how much line remains. Four stainless steel bearings and a double-dog anti-reverse ensure solid hooksets and reliable operation.
