The Penn Authority reels set a new standard for Penn and the entire fishing world, in terms of durability and performance.
The Penn® Authority is the new standard for the American, iconic company. They have been a work in progress for more than 3 years and Penn has managed to create a range of spinning reels that raise the bar to a totally new level. Focusing on best-in-class smoothness and sealing, these reels will have a size and gear ratio for every scenario. Utilizing CNC Gear technology, the precision-cut, stainless steel gear train paired with the Dura-Drag system, will give you the power to tame anything from within the deep blue.
The IPX8 sealed body and spool are top of the line, ensuring that no water will reach the internals, even if submerged.
The Penn Authority is the perfect blend of an extremely durable, yet incredibly looking reel with a super smooth gear feel. These reels are best in their class and offer everything you need as a keen angler.
With sizes ranging from 2500 to 6500, the 2500 – 3500 are perfect for the inshore anglers fishing for Seabass and Bluefish, while the 4500 – 7500 sizes are great for the nearshore and travelling angler targeting Roosterfish, Cubera Snappers and Jacks.
