PENN–International® 50VISW 2-Speed Conventional Reel, Gold
As long as the search for large game fish goes on, top anglers will rely on the legendary strength and performance of the PENN® International® VIS Two-Speed Lever Drag Reel. No other two-speed reel gives you a better chance of landing the fish of a lifetime.
Its exclusive Quick-Shift II™ 2-speed system lets you instantly choose between 2 different gear ratios – fast retrieve speed or low power speed – with the push of a button. As a result, the PENN International VIS delivers maximum efficiency to get your trophy boatside, and in releasable condition.
This world-class 6th-generation reel features a fully machined and anodized aluminum Full Metal Body and sideplates for maximum strength-to-weight ratio, with virtually zero flex even when spooled with heavy braid. The rugged spool is braid-ready and features line capacity rings graduated by thirds for easy reference.
Hard stainless steel main and pinion gears ensure ultimate integrity and strength. With 5 shielded stainless steel ball bearings, you can expect smooth performance today, tomorrow, and well into the future. Meanwhile, the double-dog ratchet anti-reverse prevents line slippage beyond your own settings made via the Versa-Strike Adjustable Strike Stop system.
The hesitation-free Dura-Drag® system functions flawlessly through a wide range of settings; advanced Line Shedding Lug design makes it impossible for the line to snap off at the reel. If you’re on a saltwater trophy quest, a PENN International VIS reel is the smart angler’s reel of choice. Gold finish.
