I bought two new reels today. I am adding some reels for Saltwater fishing. Reels that have higher line capacity to use with heavy lines (40-65 lbs/test) and higher drag.

Penn Fathom Lever Drag 25N.







Penn Spinfisher V SSV5500.

Enjoying retirement in the great Pacific Northwest.  I've turned into a fair weather angler.  Why do it today when I can do it tomorrow?

These should be good for Dolphin and Tuna.

Let me learn the ropes well (I got the boat only a few months ago) and I will send an invite for next season.

My wife saw the 15LD on my Amazon wish list and ordered one as an early Fathers Day present. Nice surprise, but it wasn't planned.
I am going to sell one of the two.
