Penn Warfare Level Wind 20 5.1:1 547g 6.8kg

Penn Warfare Level Wind 20 — Versatile Power for Saltwater Angling

The Penn Warfare Level Wind 20 with line counter (LC) combines robust construction with precise line tracking, making it an ideal choice for trolling and bottom fishing where knowing your line depth matters.

Durable Construction for Hard Fights

Built around a lightweight graphite frame reinforced with aluminum frame rings, this reel resists flex under pressure while keeping weight at just 547 g. The forged and machined aluminum spool paired with machined brass main and pinion gears delivers reliable power transfer. HT-100 carbon fiber drag washers provide smooth, consistent braking force up to 6.8 kg, even when big fish test your tackle.

Line Counter and Levelwind for Precision

The integrated line counter lets you return lures to proven depths or replicate successful presentations with confidence. Line capacity rings on the spool show at a glance how much line remains during the fight. The levelwind mechanism ensures even line lay for tangle-free performance, while instant anti-reverse prevents any backward handle movement when you set the hook.
