Penn Spinfisher VI Spinning Reel 5500 Long Cast 20kg 91cm 590g 4.8:1

Penn Spinfisher VI 5500 Long Cast — Salt-Ready Power with Every Cast

The Penn Spinfisher VI 5500 Long Cast is a robust saltwater spinning reel built for anglers who demand reliability when targeting large sea fish with both natural and artificial baits.

Sealed Against the Sea

The IPX5-rated housing and spool design keep salt water, sand, and spray away from the gear train and drag system. Whether you're fishing exposed surf beaches or offshore structures, the fully sealed construction means the internals stay protected session after session.

Drag and Gearing You Can Trust

HT-100 carbon drag washers sit inside a sealed spool, delivering a smooth, consistent 20 kg maximum drag — enough stopping power for powerful saltwater species. CNC-machined gears mesh precisely at a 4.8:1 gear ratio, producing 91 cm of line retrieve per turn, while 6 stainless ball bearings keep the action fluid under load.

Choose the Right Variant

The Spinfisher VI Long Cast is available in a single configuration. Select your reel based on the species and conditions you fish most:
