Penn Pursuit IV Spinning Fishing Reel

Smooth action and very solid! Not the most expensive in the world so I would say really great for it's price range!

Penn has always produced quality reels. this is no exception. The difference here is the price tag. while most quality reels cost well over $100, this delivers great performance at 1/2 that. It is a little heavier than other reels, but it is well made, smooth and powerful enough to land almost anything. More drag and line capacity than you'll ever need. There are smoother lighter reels available, but be prepared to pay $100-$200 more. Highly recommend for new anglers or someone who needs more than one setup.

Sally crafted reel that I would buy again. Like with any surf gear, you have sufficiently loaded up with adequate test line to make sure it can work appropriately, but it always stands up to the test.

Great value for money

First and foremost, the smoothness of this reel's operation is unmatched. Whether casting out a lightweight lure or battling a hefty catch, the Pursuit IV delivers consistently fluid motion, thanks to its precision-engineered design. This smoothness not only enhances the overall fishing experience but also ensures precise control over lure presentation and fish fighting. Durability is another area where the Pursuit IV shines. Constructed with high-quality materials and built to withstand the rigors of saltwater environments, this reel is a dependable companion for both casual outings and intense fishing adventures. I've subjected it to saltwater spray, sand, and challenging weather conditions, and it has held up admirably without compromising performance. Overall, I can't recommend the PENN Pursuit IV Spinning Fishing Reel highly enough. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting out, this reel delivers the perfect combination of performance, durability, and value. Invest in the Pursuit IV, and you'll be reeling in memorable catches for years to come.

Make sure you get your line put on correctly

The Peen Pursuit is the only reel I will buy anymore. I have 2 Pursuit IV 6000s on my catfish rods and a Pursuit III 4000 on my inshore rod and love them. They are the perfect blend of value and quality especially in a world where good inexpensive import brands exist. All the Penn quality at an agreeable price. They cast great, reel great, have good solid drag. Not too heavy like some other reels I've had. I just wish they made a 1000 size Pursuit for my ultra light gear!

Great reel. Perfect for my 7' Berkley Lightning Rod. I've used it on the last two trips and the smoothness,, casting is superb. Despite not having anti-reverse which I tend to prefer, I bought a second one because it performed so well. Caught my largest walleye of the season so far on it last Tues.
