It's a Penn product. What else can you say? This is my second. They're great on a light rod for inshore flounder fishing.

Can't be beaten for the price
March 31, 2022
I purchased the 4000 series. It has a fast retrieve for its size and has decent line capacity. I got over 200 yds of 30 lbs line so that's more than sufficient for most things you'd fish for inshore.
Only thing I dislike is that you have to turn the drag a lot before it starts to get tight but I guess i'm spoiled by bigger reels fishing for bigger fish lol

Great for snagging
February 17, 2022
I use this (5000) out at fish camp (I'm a commercial salmon set netter during the summers) for snagging salmon. For that kind of fishing I'm not looking for a fancy reel, and I want something that is cheap enough that I won't be too upset when it breaks down. Paired with a Daiwa Beefstick and the set up absolutely slays (helps that I'm using 50 lb braid to horse them in). Caught my limit within minutes more than a few times, and was able to get my home pack done without taking any fish out of the net. Two seasons in it's still working great!
Pros
- Price point

Great Affordable reel
April 26, 2021
This is the cheapest reel that Penn makes but it still lives up to the name. This reel is pretty good and a great backup reel to have on the boat or in the bag if something happens to your main reel. Very well constructed and good quality
Pros
- Strong construction
- Brand
- Price

I bought the real to use while surf fishing on vacation this year. I really like the quality of the reel, i will probably buy a couple more in other sizes. Works Great, super cheap, and looks good too. Ohh, and shipping was quick. Overall very happy, would recommend to a freind.

Good but Not the Perfect Penn!
February 3, 2021
I had this one before, and honestly, I only used it a couple fishing trips, another Penn models are better and more durable.
I would recommend this to anglers with a very limited budget, but who ever can spend more, I would suggest investing on another Penn spinning reels.

Pros
- 1) Price wise, it's very good.
- 2) Line capacity is the same of another 8000 Penn models, takes a lot of line.
Cons
- It doesn't feel like a Penn, Penn has many better models, but more expensive honestly.

Penn Wrath 8000
December 9, 2019
The Penn Wrath is a phenomenal reel at a great price. It is nicely machined and smooth operation. ITS SOOO SWEET!
Pros
- Heavy duty, with a large line capacity, it can compete with reels 5 or 6 times the price.
Cons
- It is such a popular reel they can't keep it in inventory. There were delays, Tackle direct had to get it through another distributor.
- It is a large, heavy reel- be sure your rod can support it.
