Penn sending you out a reel is awesome!

[@deepiper6529]

Congratulations on the reel JC! You deserve it my man! I have watched your channel for over 4 years now and seen you use reels like the Penn Pursuit. Ozark Trail, and other budget reels. You still caught truckloads of fish with them! I bought my Pursuit III 4000 after watching so many of your videos where you were using it and how much you liked it. Enjoy your new reel brother, but don't forget to bring out the Pursuits and Ozark Trails from time to time.. God bless.

[@FatGordie22]

Well that Authority is quite the bonus; well deserved! One of the main reasons I continue to watch you is that you have Ugly Stiked your way to success and always paired it with an affordable reel. I’ve been a Penn guy for over 30 years and never been disappointed. Some years ago I had a friend in a pricey trout tourney on the White River (Arkansas); format was 3 persons per boat - 2 anglers and 1 guide. Jason ended up in the money and recounted how the other very disgruntled anger stated while disembarking “ I can’t believe I lost to a guy with an Ugly Stik!” Good luck with the new reel.

[@rickhensley2251]

I would be excited to if I was given a $500.00 reel...congrats......well deserved.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Ha ha...I just watched the video again. I said I was excited too many times, ha ha...Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@SeamusHilleary]

JC needs a shirt that says: “smooth as flippin’ butter!” 😂

[@tampabayflatsfanatic5118]

Should look into bull bay rods, love the assualt line...manufactured in Lakeland amazing warranty and good people

[@fishinmagician81]

Good for you JC. You are a true Ambassador to the Penn brand . So glad they recognized your efforts and gave you a bonus,heck I probably paid for that reel with all the penn Merch I've bought in the last few years because of YOUR videos.Keep Rockin it Brother

[@Pmckh]

Good for you JC! Happy to see them send you a high quality reel for your loyalty

[@juniorcrandall8933]

[@NAUTILYFE]

Well deserved JC! Fantastic reel!

[@robertcameronjr5420]

Happy for you JC. You deserve it!!

[@stevechiu8264]

[@mikenov7162]

I think it surpasses the torque Seems like a really nice reel

[@jd07996]

So happy for you buddy! That is awsome!

[@eddielikesfishing]

Looks like Penn gave you a gift for reaching 50K subscribers! It came right back to you. You've been blessed! Awesome! You have a reel that should last 2 lifetimes.

[@XtremeH18]

AYEEE, BOUT TIME PENN COMES THROUGH!

[@freakbbasketball8375]

Hell yeah, so awesome they sent you out a their new product

[@stevehogan8829]

Can't think of anyone who deserves it more. I'm looking for a Penn Reel right now just because you have stayed with them for so long. Thank you sir. AND you caught your slot Snook with it....How cool is that. Leash!

[@BusyBee11226]

You deserve it. You’ve been using there trash for years. You’ve earned that gift from them.

[@michaelsnyder1162]

No‘junk’ reels around. Like the drag races; you run what you brung! Keep up the Great Content JC!!!😎🇺🇸☕️

[@jeffpuskaric9313]

That is awesome! I have a slammer 3 4500, it’s my go to and only reel for all my fishing in saltwater.

[@barclaysauls3516]

You deserve it Buddy! Keep up the hard work.

[@shawnmaginness9872]

The most expensive reel I own is a Penn conflict 2 in 4000. That's my "top shelf" reel. Lol I love it, but I also have a $50 Cadence reel that keeps up just fine, so it just goes to show you don't need the expensive stuff at all. It's definitely nice to have, though. 😎👍

[@wegottafishdude]

🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 Awesome stuff I love Penn reels

[@Dink_master_fishing]

I’ll get one eventually because it looks like a Stella but cheaper lol and it’s amazing for the price

[@jackdude2626]

sweet reel ...interesting size ...good for you JC

[@shawnweed265]

Great review. Thanks. I bought a 5500 on line but then had to go on a business trip and haven't seen it yet. Looks amazing.

[@r2d2fishing38]

Congratulations JC!

[@tunanorth]

Congratulations to the PENN product development team. The Authority just won "Best new saltwater spinning reel" at the EFTTEX Show [European fishing tackle show].

[@RobVanDam1591]

Can't wait to see this in action.

[@RM-iy7xx]

Cool of them to send you that reel. No way I will ever use one of those, 600 bucks just ain't gonna happen. Great overview and video

[@groverwoody9464]

Hope you have lots of success with your new Penn Reel.

[@danthebeeman]

That’s a very nice reel, Penn done you a great favor👍👍👍🇺🇸

[@bicalijd_pierfishing9652]

My favorite is the Penn pursuit 5000 it's been working great since I bought it 👍🏼 and also Abu Garcia 40 spinning rod 👍🏼💖

[@Bocasean18]

So glad they sent you that. Well deserved amazing jc. Go catch some big snook

[@Jetmech1085]

Well deserved, merry Christmas ! Hahaha . Hope you faired well in the hurricane

[@richardlombardi7199]

Great accomplishment and review

[@tampabayflatsfanatic5118]

Been patiently waiting for the Authority to be released! Bass Pro here I come! 🤣🎣

[@steveokoren4059]

Congrats on the new reel. Early holiday gift for JC. Penn should have sent you a T-shirt with the reel. Now go catch some fish with it. 👍

[@davidbasulto8740]

Frigin,, Sweet JC. Congrats!!

[@joshuafigueroa6]

I've been using penn for years and still use my 650s all metal. I got to clean more often. But to myself it's worth it 💪

[@kevinpedraza1424]

Might have to get one myself 😮

[@jeffroberts4788]

WOW penn with the win. man jc thats awesome i just wish you'd give some or your older retired combo away to me lol

[@sayuridoyle1151]

Congratulations J.C.

[@robertrio632]

Beautiful reel, a bit above my price range given I fish on public piers and bridges. Still have a pair of 1995 Penn 4400SS reels that I love but one has a bad drag and one has a faulty anti-reverse, hard to find a good repairman these days. Probably watch a few KZbin videos and fix them myself. I did fix one once with a part I got off Ebay.

[@madshadow85]

Bass pro has star rod stellar lites on sale at the moment, just saying. Enjoy the new reel you disserve it JC!

[@zackmorehouse]

Congrats JC! Now you need a premium rod to pair with it!

[@YakinwithJack]

Amazing reel inhave the slammer 4 2500 great reel

[@melissaolson3631]

Well slap my pappy and howdy howdy let’s go fishing. Happy for you JC go get um on that Penn.

[@moblack5883]

Nice !

[@zzcaptainmastiv2727]

whoa, nice 13 bearings awesome pelagic reeeeeeeeeel, would work in fresh water too, lol. thanks JC!

[@thevernonposse]

I just the 6500hs and I couldn't be happier the two bearings in the spool make the drag in the authority much better than the slammer

[@bennyrosado1414]

Good on you brother. You well deserved!

[@pa1264]

Great video nice reel, they cost $600 in Australia🤣😂

[@geoeconomics5629]

Rad is flying high no more affordable tackle Great reel no doubt for offshore fishing

[@frankgordonsmith4795]

Cool

[@FrankLadd]

Great reel! I used to use 30 pound braid or higher all the time. Now I'm going to 20 pound to cast farther. What pound test are you using these days?

[@jthoutdoors106]

That’s awesome JC! You deserve it man!

[@ricks2907]

It’s a beautiful day lol thanks buddy cheers Ricky 💃🕺🎵🐈‍⬛🎸🧜‍♀️🎣💦😎🍤💣😳

[@RollinRollinReelin]

Hi brother I love PENN reels too. I have a PENN 9500 Spincaster. How do I get one like yours! Keep up the good videos! Tight lines!

[@RadReelingFishing]

Go here to get one bit.ly/3CGlADe

[@fisherman1353]

wish Penn started building their reels here in America, I avoid much as i can Chinese products

[@dankmeme1990]

Hey Jc I live in Bradenton and I see some spots that are familiar can you drop some spot you will fish sometime soon so I can meet you or fish with you?

[@thevernonposse]

I don't know much about gears but apparently there important "jc rad reeling 2022"

[@rchydrozz751]

Even if they're free. I dont like the large door handles they are putting on some of these reels. Not even rubber but metal knobs. Hope they start making handle options to change these out.

[@maasai-]

I have some penn reels including torque 1st gen. This one looks even better , there’s another mile for penn to compete hard against the best out there , shimano n daiwa , the rotor n spool badly in need for good revision design

[@eh6363]

Congratulations, beyond my budget but maybe one day.

[@tombishop8787]

I have a Penn 10ft surf rod and the 3500 authority real what mono line should I use.This combo was suggested by a Penn rep what do you think?

[@RadReelingFishing]

Line choices are determined by the distance needed to cast, the surrounding structure you're fishing and the size fish you will be targeting.

[@thevernonposse]

Would have been nice to have on that Goliath

[@markdavid1479]

I’m at the dura drag that’s on the slammer and authority

[@michaelbandeko3519]

I bought 4 of 2500 to compare to my Shimano Stella's. They compare favorably to the Stella's. I am curious to see how the stand up to Giant Trevally.

[@RadReelingFishing]

What? I think you meant to say 7500 didn't you?

[@mikenov7162]

I like this guy who reminds me of Bill dance pretty funny dude

[@kamkamgamer2241]

Do you still use the pennIV 6000 & the ugly stik bigwater?

[@RadReelingFishing]

I still have that combination, but haven't used it much in the past couple of years.

[@ITigerbaum]

You deserve that and more!

[@jackhaydon]

What is the best rod to use with this reel?

[@RadReelingFishing]

I use Ugly Stik rods a lot. Check out my newest one here www.uglystik.com.au/product/ugly-stik-carbon-inshore/ The GX2, Inshore Select, Elite and new Carbon Inshore models are all great fits for this reel. The longer the rod the further you'll be able to cast...Thanks for watching.

[@Jessica37323]

Cashion surf rods

[@aznvi3tboy209]

So you're telling me this is better than the penn torque 2. Damn it!! I told that damn rep to give me their top of the line and I get a crappie torque 2

[@clintglisson7976]

What makes it the best of the best?

[@RadReelingFishing]

Great question...That's easy, Penn reels are the best.

[@clintglisson7976]

I want to understand why, can you explain

[@jamesbear3794]

JC I have Penn Slammers both broken bails throwing large swim baits or Jigs. Really hard to find a good repair person in Stuart. I will now buy Diawa BG or Penn battle 3 , when break, throw away and repeat . I fish four days a week only for snook. Won’t pay 450 for a Penn . Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

[@WhiteGhost21]

so what youre saying is that the Runcl is better than that one

[@RadReelingFishing]

ha ha...Thanks for watching.

[@brianjmt5213]

It took them long enough!!!. Enjoy...

[@captrwest1]

How you need me to build you a quality rod for that reel.

[@johnsurf509]

I been loyal to penn from the 70's!!I never got shit!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Jessica37323]

Shimano Spheros is IPX8 and is $150.

[@emon550]

that is nice...but ouch!!!

[@frostizz2072]

How’s the reel after a year

[@RadReelingFishing]

Working great! I've fished with it maybe 20 times.

[@frostizz2072]

@@RadReelingFishing is it heavy when your reeling or smooth

[@TheJollymice]

I wished they made the reel take more line like the Stella, not worth the price for me.

[@thomasstalcup4531]

wow! $500 reel

[@franciscocruz2910]

looks the same shimano stella .... the tsunami shield is the same drag 30 lb !!!

[@markdavid1479]

Still rather have a slammer.

[@rebornspirit1047]

I'm going to be that guy, despite penn claiming it can be submerged underwater for "30" minutes with out water getting in. I still wouldn't trust it, most of the time its marketing. but if I want to fish under water with a reel I got my van staals for that since its actually designed for it.. I still have Penn reels but I just don't trust them as much anymore. too many broken pinon gears/bad main gears out of the box.

[@theloabakung]

reelnya ga enak, kalo kena beban jadi berat.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Reel apa yang kamu suka?

Too much

[@lynkpaul33]

JC, you're a seasoned fisherman. You should know your reels and parts inside out and how to service and repair them. The main parts are the main shaft, crown wheel and pinion, main bearings. Your drag system is important.also and must be maintained as well. A good reel is only as good as the person using it. A good fisherman can use a cheap reel just as efficient. Penn has a reputation and is well made, however they are grossly overpriced. Most people who buy them, it's just a status thing and they can't fish or catch fish worth a damn. That is a nice reel you got there and I'm sure you are going to put it to good use. Although they claim it's sealed, before using it, open it up yourself, oil and grease all surfaces where water can penetrate just as a precaution. Just because they claim it can be submerged up to 9 feet for 30 mins, please don't try it. Now go forth and catch many big fish

[@kylelouiselle1201]

The penn Torque is one notch up from that one bud sorry too tell ya.

[@kylelouiselle1201]

I have the 3 penn slammer 111 same drag awesome reels a lot cheaper
