Sizes Available: 3500, 4500, 5500, 6500, 7500, 8500, 9500, 10500. There are also fast-retrieve versions in sizes 6500 and 8500 available. This is Penn’s flagship feature on all their reels and it’s something that sets them apart from the competition. Their CNC gearing technology makes all components of the gearbox out of brass and since they use a CNC machining process it ensures precision. This results in enhanced cranking power which is especially important when dealing with saltwater. IPX6 Sealed Body The brand is so important because it plays a major role in the quality of the reel you get and the customer service you experience if you have an issue. Penn has been around since the 1930s, they have a strong reputation, they’re not going to let you down.

The Penn Slammer IV comes with eight stainless steel bearings and one anti-reverse bearing. Hydrophobic Line Roller Bearings Normally, this is where I would include a chart to help break down the various models of whatever reel I’m reviewing but in this case, the Penn Slammer IV has 13 different reel sizes which is a plus in itself. But, it makes it hard to put together a chart that large. Also featured on the spool are line-capacity rings cut into the base of the spool. These are designed, not for how much line is loaded, but refer, at a glance, as to how much line you have left on the reel spool when a big fish takes a lot of line. The inner line denotes 1/3 rd capacity, the middle line 2/3rds capacity, and the outer line full capacity. And while we’re thinking of line, the spool capacity is 230yds of 15lb mono, or 380yds of 30lb braid, give or take. More than enough to handle anything this reel is pitched against in UK waters!
Size 5500- Gear Ratio 5.6:1 -Bearings 9 - Max Drag 40lb/18.1kg - Mono Capacity m/mm 390/0.28 210/0.36 - Instant Anti-Reverse To further protect the internal working parts this reel range features an IPX6 rated sealed system. This is designed to minimise ingress of water into the gear box and drag system and is designed to maintain full performance and to minimise the chance of corrosion.refer to the "Usually ships in X" details on the 2nd line of the above status, which are unique by brand For that reason alone, I only discussed the various features that I think will have an impact on the performance of the reel in a way that will make catching fish easier and more enjoyable for you.

Size 7500- Gear Ratio 4.7:1 -Bearings 9 - Max Drag 50lb/22.6kg - Mono Capacity m/mm 450/0.36 200/0.46 - Instant Anti-Reverse We wondered if, at a weight of 22.4oz (633g) the reel would feel heavy? Nope! We actually found that the reel balances really well on our typical 11ft to 11ft 6in bass rods, also on the longer European style soft tipped boat rods around the 10ft to 11ft length we prefer for general boat drift fishing and species hunting. CNC Gear technology provides all brass gears, engineered to within microns. They’re super tuff and incredibly smooth so they can handle the massive loads that will be created by the incredible drag strengths.Understanding the features of the reel is great but it’s also important to know how to choose a reel based on that. One of the most important things I’ve learned from testing over 25 reels is not to think too hard about it. And, if you need ultra-accurate casting distances to reach fishy looking snags or want to fish right on the edge of a distant estuary channel, then the spool carries a line clip you can clip the line into once you’ve gauged the distance you need to cast to keep your baits or lures bang on the money. The Dura Drag is brilliant at take-off, removing all hesitation. This is the system Penn have been using in their offshore game reels and now with reduced minimum drag it gives you a reel with really nice progression.
We have categorized the Penn Slammer 4 Reels into a few separate categories from medium to extra large
About the product
The bale-arm is a heavy-duty wire type for added strength and durability. On all the Penn Slammers up to and including the 5500 the bale-arm is automatic, with the larger 6500, 7500, 8500, 9500 and 10500 sizes all manual trip. Size 8500- Gear Ratio 4.7:1 -Bearings 9 - Max Drag 50lb/22.6kg - Mono Capacity m/mm 415/0.46 240/0.61 - Instant Anti-Reverse The reel has proved a pleasure to fish with in a variety of situations from shore and from boat. Built for the Bluewater market in the US, these reels are fully on top of their game here in the UK and with normal basic maintenance are likely to last a very long time giving great value for money! The oversize handle is brilliant for powerful cranking. It comes fitted with an Aluminium handle on all models other than 2500 but an EVA version is also supplied with all models (2500 only has EVA). and may ship directly from them or first get shipped to our facility.
