This reel fitted with quality line is one of the smoothest casting and very forgiving as far a backlashing is concerned. Excellent spoonbill snagging reel, recommended for all types of baitcasting fishing. Very well built and very durable, great value for the money.

Very nice reels. I have always been loyal to Penn fishing gear. I have International 30s and 50s for offshore fishing and 650 SS spinners for inshore and live bait fishing, but wanted to broaden my light tackle arsenal.I bought these to use for live bait kite fishing for sailfish, and am very happy with them. I was looking at Penn Spinfishers, Shimano Baitrunners, etc. but since I have little children, and often take inexperienced people fishing, I thought these conventional style reels would be better suited.I paired them with Penn Mariner II 6' Medium action rods..for me this is an ideal combination for bottom fishing, live bait fishing and even light tackle trolling.-the level wind is great for anglers who do not know how to manually level the line when retrieving, especially when kite fishing, where one has to constantly let out and retrieve line.-The conventional style reels are less prone to creating line twist...inexperienced anglers with a spinner will often keep cranking the reel even though the drag is pulling...this creates line twists...won't happen with a conventional reel. The level winder on these reels are very smooth and much better than they were in 'the old days'.- Free spool tension: These reels have a secondary drag for when the reel is in free spool (like a bait caster reel), this is invaluable for preventing backlashes/bird nests on the reel and a great feature for live bait fishing-Both the star drag and the free spool tensions have clicking detents...i.e. as you adjust them they have little clicks..this is really nice to have a tactile sense of how much you are adjusting the drags.-The reels are very light weight, and look beautiful!First trip out with them I fought a 76" sailfish, a 14# King Mackerel, and an 8 pound Atlantic Bonito...the reels performed perfectly.

I’ve been a Penn loyalist for decades. I live in Bay Area so I’m a sturgeon slayer. Hali-Hunter, salmon and stripped bass. I own 4 320 git’s and they are still kickin strong. I decided to add one more reel, so I bought the Squall 2 50lw. I have to say I’m impressed. Solid build, smooth crank, loud bait runner clicker, plenty of drag 33lbs. Stout and looks sexy on an ugly stick tiger. So…, order up, quit couch surfin, quit wishin and go fishin…;) this reel comes in both right and left hand crank. There is no right or wrong way to crank. Whatever is comfortable. Spinners I like left crank. Bait caster right crank. Your option. 😃***Parents don’t frame photos of their kids playin video games - take them fishing!

Come on, this is a Penn Reel!! Know for decades as the leader in the Salt for Quality and ease of function! Not only do these reels look good, they perform even better! Easy to use drag system that is reliable when it counts and these are able to withstand the year long deep sea rigors of Alaska! My boat pretty much only carries Penn Reels for the heavy demands of bottom fishing up to and including two Penn International Reels. These Squall II reels are so much easier for folks who need the level wind, I have had these in the hands of friends and family from the lower 48 with not one single issue! Penn has been my favorite reel on the salt for nearly 50 years! I recommend you buy one, or two, why not three like I did. Man, I think I may need to buy a couple more just to have on standby.

Took this out into the Gulf of Mexico on a head boat. Excellent reel. Never had a single problem. Level wind worked great and drag was up to some healthy red, cuberra and vermillion snapper. I have thhebreel mounted on an Ugly Stik Tiger casting rod. Very nice combo.The line lay when spooling up the rod skews slightly to one side, hence the 4/5 stars. This was very slight and did not affect the fishing abilities of the reel at all. I also do not believe it materially affected the line capacity of the reel.I spooled the reel on the road under less ideal conditions and thought this might be the root cause of the line skewing. When I got home from the trip, I stripped the line (40# mono) and respooled the reel. I used my spooling station for the respool. I got the same imbalance/skewing the 2nd time, so I am now thinking this condition might just the way this reel works. I have no real issue with the line skewing and would recommend the reel to anyone going out on a head boat a few times a year.

Used for 3 days boat fishing so far . Reeled in everything from mackeral to a decent sized Tope . Just make sure the level wind is well lubricated before use

War in norwegen sehr zufrieden mit der multi ....besser währe jedoch wenn sie für den deutschen markt das zählwerk nicht in fuß sondern in meter angibt so muß man immer umrechnen.Das zählwerk ist aber sehr hilfreich in verbindung mit dem gps...
Hallo das Teil gefällt meinem Sohn.

Nice wheels for the price. Holden some nice 30 to 40 pound fish in with them. I noticed on the two units I purchased that be real release lever can get a little sticky. Not sure if this will correct itself but it was a bit of a problem. Love the looks of the real and The size is just right for Bahama fishing. I ordered the 50 pound reels.
