The PENN International VI series is a fishing reel made in the USA using high-quality materials. It is made from strong and lightweight aluminum that is commonly used in airplanes. The reel is made by skilled workers who have been creating high-quality reels since 1932. The reel has strong steel gear and a special feature called Dura-Drag that makes it easier to use and prevents it from getting stuck, even when you're onto the fish of a lifetime!
