No matter which coast you fish off, Penn Fathom Lever-Drag 2-Speed Reels from TackleDirect will provide the versatility to tackle a variety of saltwater species anywhere in the world. This reel is great for bottom-fishing for cod and seabass in the Atlantic or trolling for tuna, yellowtail and dorado in the Pacific. Use it for jigging up stripers, blues and weakfish in the Northeast or for live-baiting redfish, red snapper and redfish in the Gulf.
The Penn Fathom 2-speed lets you downshift to slowly crank in the big ones. Use the higher speed for adding action to your lure or bait or for quickly bringing in your other lines when a crazy combative fish fight is on.
Featuring a full-metal body and side plates and a forged, machined aluminum spool, this workhorse is lightweight but strong, powerful and smooth. Choose from a variety of models to suit the type of fishing you do.

Is a great little reel, have caught some pretty big fish with this. The amount of drag is the best thing about this reel. Only own Penn reels for a reason.

Only used once so far and really pleased with the reel, it made short work of a nice Cobia and several Amberjacks. I anticipate enjoying this reel a lot.

Great halibut reels
September 7, 2021
Cought lots of halibut high gear is awesome for retrieving 3# lead from 300ft. Low gear to bring in the Barndoor. Did not rock on the reel seat have the speed master also. Liked the penn better.

Best 2 speed lever drag reel for the money
August 5, 2021
I have 4 of these Fathom reels. Penn reliability. Plenty tough for big tuna.
Pros
- Quality. Price.
Cons
- The basic reel clamp provided does not have a hole off to one side to hook your lure. Not a big deal.

Pros
- Smooth, strength, quality, drag
