I bought the penn 7000, and it’s so light , when matched with my penn 14ft rods it feels like you’re holding a course fishing outfit. The line lay on the these reels is fantastic 👍 definitely, definitely improved my casting distance. Ordered another one today

Just got myself the 7000. Lovely looking and very light. So light that you think how is this strong enough. Not used it as yet

Hi Jansen, this is a brave one, anglers are so passionate about reels. 😂 I was considering a couple of Fathoms and now you've posted this. I think fixed spools are very practical but why do those multipliers look so good, until they turn into a birds nest 🤔 Seasonal greetings all.
@thegamblingangler9 ай бұрын
Hi Paul, I honestly believe that fixed spool reels are now on par with multipliers. The technology has been progressing nicely for a while and multipliers have been standing still. I’d reconsider the Fathoms and go for Tidal XT’s, or if you want to push the boat out, Shimano Power Aero’s.

Just bought a Penn Tidal XT 8000 .watched your video and done everything you did to get started. Went to Hythe last night First 3 casts ok . Then reeled in so i thought. no line was coming in the spool was turning but when i looked down the line had gone underneath the spool wrapped round the shaft ,So i had to go back to my Multiplier .Any suggestions would be appreciated
@VealsMailOrder28989 ай бұрын
Really not sure sure how that might’ve happened, there should be a line guard in place that prevents the line from doing that?
@colinbrette43879 ай бұрын
Possibly you over loaded the spool, thats the usual problem with fixed spools

I have only used fixed spool for 30 somthing years now , I prefer rear drag or clutch , Question Are there many rear clutch /drag fixed spool ,sea reels on the market , and is there a reason why they are mostly fromt clutch
@VealsMailOrder28988 ай бұрын
Read drag fixed spools aren’t practical for use with heavier leads. The clutch probably wouldn’t lock down enough to hold the force of a cast with a heavy lead on a powerful rod.

Between this and the Shimano ultegra xr, which one is better?
@VealsMailOrder28985 ай бұрын
It does come down to personal preference as the two reels are similar, but I’d go for the Penn. The build quality and general performance seems a little better. Jansen

hello.. I'm hesitating between the 8000 model and the 7000 model.. except for the line capacity and the weight, is there another advantage knowing that I fish in the Mediterranean? thanks for the video.
@VealsMailOrder28986 ай бұрын
The 7000 model could be better for you as it’s slightly smaller and lighter and would be better for light lines

Bonjour Très belle vidéo, entre le shimano ultegra ci4 et le Penn quel est le meilleur pour vous et pourquoi ? Merci
@VealsMailOrder28987 ай бұрын
je préfère le Penn, il y a moins de jeu dans l'engrenage que l'Ultegra et l'oscillation est meilleure. J'espère que cela aide🙂
