Penn Fishing

The three GS models all feature centrifugal brakes, so they can be cast from the shore or boat with ease. The high retrieve ratio and overall ‘grunt’ that these reels provide are also firm favourites with serious rock anglers, who need to be able to crank big fish in quickly to avoid snags.

However, if you’re after the ultimate in casting control then the GS Mag T is just what the doctor ordered. These reels feature a single rare earth magnet on a wind in, wind out mechanism to provide the ultimate in infinite casting control.

Both ranges are designed for serious ‘clamp down’ fishing, when the going is extremely tough and you need to keep turning that handle to retrieve line. Both the pinion gear and spindle are supported by bearings, so when the pressure is on, the drive train remains in perfect alignment – allowing you to use brute force without fear of the reel collapsing.
