Penn Warfare II Level Wind 20 5.1:1 510g 7kg Right Line Counter

Penn Warfare II Level Wind 20 — Versatile Conventional Reel with Line Counter

The Penn Warfare II Level Wind 20 5.1:1 with line counter delivers dependable performance for saltwater anglers who need to control depth precisely. Its lightweight graphite construction, synchronized levelwind, and built-in line capacity rings make it an excellent choice for trolling, bottom fishing, and structure work at an accessible price point.

Rigid Frame, Smooth Operation

The lightweight graphite frame and sideplates are reinforced with aluminum frame rings to prevent flex under load, while the forged and machined aluminum spool handles heavy braided and monofilament lines with ease. A 5.1:1 gear ratio with machined brass main and pinion gears retrieves 73 cm per turn, balancing cranking power with reasonable recovery speed. Three stainless steel bearings (2+1 configuration) and an Instant Anti-Reverse bearing ensure smooth, confident hooksets and steady retrieves.

Line Counter and Levelwind for Precision

The integrated line counter tracks your depth when trolling or dropping baits to structure, eliminating guesswork during the fight. Line capacity rings provide a visual reference of remaining line on the spool. The synchronized levelwind distributes line evenly across the spool, reducing tangles and maintaining consistent drag pressure. HT-100 carbon fiber drag washers deliver smooth, reliable stopping power up to 7 kg, even under sustained runs.

Choose the Right Variant

The Warfare II Level Wind series is available in three sizes and multiple configurations to match your target species and fishing style:

• Size 15 (490 g, mono 375/12–215/20, 5.1:1 ratio, 73 cm retrieve, 7 kg drag): light-duty trolling, bottom fishing for smaller species, and finesse presentations

• Size 20 (510 g, mono 475/15–290/25, 5.1:1 ratio, 73 cm retrieve, 7 kg drag): versatile mid-size option for walleye, salmon, striped bass, cod, and medium saltwater species

• Size 30 (553 g, mono 455/25–285/40, 3.9:1 ratio, 69 cm retrieve, 7 kg drag): heavy-duty trolling and deep-dropping for larger fish requiring greater line capacity and cranking torque

All sizes offer right-hand (standard) and left-hand retrieve options. Models with LC suffix include a line counter; models without LC omit this feature but weigh slightly less.
