Penn Squall Lever Drag 2 Speed IGFA50 — Big-Game Power in a Lightweight Package

The Penn Squall Lever Drag 2 Speed IGFA50 delivers proven big-game performance with the weight-saving benefits of a graphite construction, making it ideal for extended battles with trophy fish in saltwater.

Lightweight Graphite Construction for All-Day Comfort

Built with a graphite frame and sideplates, the IGFA50 keeps weight down to 1576 g without sacrificing strength or corrosion resistance. The forged and machined aluminum spool features line capacity rings that show at a glance whether your spool is one-third, two-thirds, or fully loaded, helping you manage line during the fight.

Quick-Shift 2-Speed System and Dura-Drag Reliability

Switch instantly between high-speed retrieve (2.9:1, 84 cm per turn) and low-speed cranking power (1.5:1, 43 cm per turn) with the Quick-Shift system, proven in Penn's International series. The Dura-Drag system delivers smooth, consistent pressure up to 18.1 kg, while stainless steel main and pinion gears and four stainless steel bearings ensure durability. The double-dog anti-reverse provides solid hooksets.
