Boasting an ideal combination of strength and durability, the Slammer from Penn is the spinning reel of choice for saltwater anglers everywhere. Beginning with a Full Metal Body design of special high-strength alum-alloy, the Slammer boasts the strength to house and protect its powerful gearing system. With 5 stainless steel roller bearings and 1 Infinite Anti Reverse roller bearing, the Slammer offers immediate hook setting capabilities with a high-performance gear feel that will not corrode. The beefy 760 Model is equipped with 6 roller bearings and 1 Infinite Anti Reverse roller bearing for an exceptionally smooth performance. In order to handle the greater drag placed on the reel by super-braids, the Slammer's main support shaft for the spool is drastically oversized and triple supported throughout the frame so that alignment and balance will not be compromised under intense pressure. Taking advantage of the large and under-utilized area beneath the spool, the Slammer is outfitted with an oversized, HT 100 drag washer that protects the drag from the elements, providing increased drag ranges and drastically increased fish-stopping power for the drag system. In addition, the Leveline spool wrap system provides additional reliability. Finally, thanks to the latest in computer and stereo-lithography modeling, the Techno-Balanced Slammer Reel offers an incredibly balanced feel. Backed by a 1 year warranty from Penn, the Slammer is one of the most durable and long-lasting high-performance spinning reels on the market.

A solid reel, but the drag is a drag.,
By
This review is from: Penn Gold Label Series Slammer Spinning Reel (Sports)
Penn has made a very solid reel in the Slammer Series. However there is one design flaw, that depending on how you fish, might be a dealbreaker. I fish from the surf, not from a boat, and as a result my reels are often soaked by waves. The drag on the Penn Slammer, when it gets wet, becomes useless... basically it sticks to itself, then gets very loose, then sticks... not smooth like it operates when dry. As a result this reel is all but useless to me. Fishing from a boat, you may not have any issues with it at all. But for me, it's a dealbreaker.

great bluefish / striper reel,

This review is from: Penn Gold Label Series Slammer Spinning Reel (Sports)
For the price this is a great reel. I like the heaviness of the reel fishing blues and stripers in fall ocean swells. This reel can stand up to a few bumps without any problems.

Tank of a reel,

This review is from: Penn Gold Label Series Slammer Spinning Reel (Sports Apparel)
Very smooth reel! Smooth drag! Only gave 4 stars due to weight and the auto close feature for the bail is rather stiff and very clunky. One of the best reel for the money.
