Penn Fathom II casting reels. First look.

[@robslipsky9066]

I’m curious. When you dial the magnets in can you actually feel the resistance?

[@jordanwaderosecatfishadven355]

You didn't mention the upgraded bearings in the cast special.

[@ShorrockPaul]

cs has more line capacity too, which can be pretty important

[@bluesimon13ify]

Great reels, I'm looking to get one!

[@BoandBeceadventures]

It’s been 9months now since the video. The CS’s are impossible to find. Have you done a teardown yet? Do the parts fit well? Bearings and shaft etc?

[@beany1987]

Thought the Cs had uprated bearings inside it aswell??

[@angelatavener653]

These reels have a big problem with reels seat working loose after a few hours fishing . I have had 3 all go and waiting for penn to sort it out

[@c4lho888]

im looking to get one but with line lay dose it slow it down alot

[@jenbilbrey1089]

The 15 is perfect

[@dave1secondago]

hi there nice reels could u tell me were there made cheers

[@philipmeloy9342]

My Casting Special had a "Made in China" sticker on it. I expect the other Fathoms are as well.

[@robintompkins8745]

Hi just curious but would the mag side plate on this penn fathom II 15 fit the penn fathom II 15 Casting special as the mag dial on the 15cs digs into the wrist when retrieving making it very uncomfortable to use and is putting some off buying the casting special.

[@philipmeloy9342]

You can just swap the control knobs.

[@ldm_channel5004]

Good job my brother👍☕

[@oscarjagal1081]

Is the new fathom 2 casting special its available in left handed ?

[@GerrysFishing1]

No sorry. only in right hand

[@joseloninguno2787]

Is there a difference in size between fathom 15 and fathom 15 II? I have not been able to find a comparison between 15 old and 15 new

[@silverforever15]

Mag brakes is one difference

[@djslater358]

Robert S he asked about a size difference...

[@tunanorth]

No size difference.

[@mikem4432]

the base bolt clamps of those models are too narrow to fit anything bigger than a 10 foot rod. if you surf fish, you probably use a 12 or larger rod. That is a huge problem.

[@donovanstockton44]

What rod/reel would you recommend then? I ordered the standard 15 not the casting special and can send it back. I haven't picked a rod out. I intend to use it for mainly surf fishing on the East and West Coast of USA.

[@kf8575]

Use a fuji reel seat, or coasters?

[@rufinogonzalez6020]

Damn wish they had the 12 in lw

[@silverforever15]

I don’t know wat 15 to get

[@joseloninguno2787]

friend: is there somewhere with this written review? So I can use Google translator.

[@rufinogonzalez6020]

What’s mag

[@southerner4566]

It's to control the spool speed.

[@alexgray711]

They will fly off the shelves

[@southerner4566]

Nice reels, Shame about the handles

[@johnsmith-xd9ej]

you forget the easy access 3 screws system for service hence your review is incomplete
