Title: Penn SSV II
Post by: Shark Hunter on July 06, 2024, 05:29:43 AM
I have been looking for this spinner for quite some time.
Supposed to be the best spinfisher ever with CNC Gear technology.
I wish Sal was here, cause it looks like his design to me.

Cleaned the penn blue and applied cals to the drag washers.
Plan on seeing what she's got. It is massive.

I have the 10500 in the SSV line. It feels like something you need a special permit for! I love it. Would love your full review of the new one.

Sweet! I love those Spinfishers

I have a SSVI 10500 although to date I've only caught one 30" black tip with it.

The first thing I bought for the reel, even before line, was a brand new spool from Mystic for a spare. It was incredibly cheap I think, $37 + S&H, and includes the drag stack.
