The Slammer® IV is packed with more features than ever before. Building off of our proven IPX6 sealed body and spool, we redesigned our Slammer® drag system to not only be better sealed, but also offer a wider range of usable drag, all while being bearing supported for extra smoothness. Adding our all brass CNC gear technology, 8+1 stainless steel bearing system and Hydrophobic Line Roller Bearing has made the Slammer IV the ultimate workhorse reel. ##Key differences for the 2500 are listed in the feature bullets.

    Slammer 3500 Great reel！

    I have been using this reel for surf fishing in California year-round, and its durability in demanding saltwater conditions has been impressive.

    I recently had the reel overhauled by the Penn Fishing technical and maintenance department to ensure it remains in top condition. They provided excellent service and did a fantastic job. I highly recommend their team for any maintenance needs.

    Best reel for the price

    I was fishing the other day and a 26 inches red fish pulled my rod in and the next day I snagged my reel and caught the red. It still reels perfectly with no problems after being underwater in the bay for a day. Best reel OAT

    Slammed the Golden Dorado

    We battle-tested the Slammer on these tough fighting fish in Argentina. It had smooth drag even when locked down and stayed smooth after the trip!
