Penn International Reel VI Series Penn International Reel VI Series For Game Fishing – 2 Speed Game fisho’s get excited! It’s not too often game reels get a make over however Penn have just taken the new Penn International reel to a brand new level. Still proudly made in the USA the biggest difference between the old Penn International VS series and the new VI series is the difference in weight. All reels in the series have had weight reduction which means a reel that is more manageable and less chance of angler fatigue. There are few game boats which have never been graced by the class of Penn International Reel. A tradition since the early 30’s, Penn continues to develop outstanding game reels, and the Penn International VI game series is no exception. Dual Speed gearing and outstanding line capacities are just the beginning of these feature laden reels. Constructed from air craft grade aluminium, the fully machined frame and side plates provide the strength and rigidity, while keeping things light. The stainless dual speed gearing allows for serious cranking power that can be easily switched up when speed is required. Carbon Fibre Dura Drag ensures a very smooth take off, the most critical point of the battle, and is easily managed by the easy to use lever system. Multi-stop Anti reverse keeps the pressure on the fish, ensuring you have the best chance of seeing your hook-up through the battle, and all the way to the gunwale. It should also be mentioned that the Penn International VI Reel series is cosmetically stunning, with classic Penn gold, and sleek styling. Fishing for the likes of Shark, Tuna, Sailfish and record breaking Marlin requires the toughest, most reliable game fishing reels, to give you an upper edge in the battle. The Penn International Reel VI series provides the sort of high end fishing performance that is always required, to hit the blue water’s biggest with supreme confidence.

Penn International Reel VI Series Buyers Guide Many ask us the question what is the difference between the Penn International VIS Reel and The VISX Reel and which one should I buy? Well to answer that simply without making it too complicated the VIS/VISW Series are designed to be wider and are ideal for anglers that are using monofilament IGFA Lines whereas the Penn International VISX reel are a somewhat narrower in comparison and are designed for the anglers that use higher test class mono where line capacity isn’t as important but more so, The VISX is geared up for the braid angler, and has placed emphasis on those anglers that push huge amounts of drag into the fight. To do this, Penn have included Machine-Cut, Heat-Treated Stainless Steel Main and Pinion Gears, and Drag Cam. The Frame and side plate are forged aircraft grade aluminium, keeping things light will providing incredible strength and rigidity. The bearings are Aircraft-Grade, Sealed, Stainless Steel, working in perfect synchronicity with the hugely powerful gears. The result is smooth, consistent and reliable cranking, especially under load. So That’s pretty much it. The VISX are better for those using braid and the VIS /VISW series for those using mono line. Benefits Constructed from aircraft grade aluminium providing superb strength while keeping weight to a minimum. Machined 2-speed stainless steel gear train. The 2 speeds give you the choice of more speed or raw cranking power. The stainless construction ensures longevity. Dual gear settings allow for speed or cranking power, and the lever drag system provides easy control and setting changes during battle. All operations are intuitively designed. The Dura Drag System ensures drag is smooth on take-off. Hesitation is nigh on abolished, for more confidant, consistent hook-ups. Outstanding line capacities across the range making them ideal for the traditional mono anglers. The Multi stop Anti- Reverse provides the angler with excellent control over a long fight, ensuring lines remain taught, with the pressure on the fish. Harness lugs on models 20 and up provide a suitable anchor point, for safety, as well as load distribution, assisting the angler to lay in to a battle. The famous flash of Penn gold instills confidence when the pressures on in the blue water environment.

ABOUT OUR COMPANY The business as a whole started back in 2001 as Fishing Aqua Pet, a small retail Fishing Tackle, Aquarium and Pet store run by proprietor Ben Czulowski In 2006 the pet and aquarium side of the business was dissolved and we focused just on the Fishing / Water sport side of the business renaming our trading name to Ocean Storm Fishing Tackle. 2005-2006 were slow beginnings online as I created my online store by myself from scratch. I received a small amount of orders per week but in 2007 saw our business explode to a new level after we passed the first few initial years of teething. I also expanded our product range to several thousand products most of which are stocked items ready to ship. In 2012 I opened a massive warehouse store and have expanded our online fishing store into an online camping store also as well as offering for sale boating bits, soft surfboards and a whole lot more. Today Ocean Storm has grown to the level of processing tens of thousands of orders a year and have built up a huge level of trust and confidence with our customers. © Copyright 2017 Today’s Other Hot Products Daiwa Saltist MQ Reel AU $399.00 Penn Authority Reel AU $609.00 Shimano Twin Power SW Reel AU $660.00 Daiwa Saltist Level Wind Reel AU $399.00 Daiwa Tierra HD IC Fishing Reel AU $699.00
