Penn Slammer IV Spin Reel
The New Slammer IV Spin Reel from Penn takes the ultimate workhorse reel to another level. Building on the IPX6 sealed body and spool featured in the Slammer III range, Penn has redesigned the Dura-Drag system in the Slammer IV giving it a better seal and wider range of useable drag all while being bearing supported for extra smoothness. Whether you are live baiting in the surf, fishing from the rocks, flicking poppers on a coral reef or deep water jigging, The Slammer IV range wont let you down.
