Penn Saltwater Low Profile Baitcaster Reel (Fathom Or Squall)

Most of us anglers are all too familiar with the name Penn; It is a household name for many. From the spinfisher to the international Penn have been a market leader for decades in the fishing industry producing some of the world's best saltwater spin, overhead and game reels. However, one category Penn has never really paid much attention to is the baitcatser market; that is until now.

In recent years we have seen a growing trend of anglers using low profile baitcasters near-shore ever since the micro jig craze came to Australia. Penn caught this trend, and the technical team at Penn manufacturing got busy. The result is a series of feature-packed low profile baitcaster reels designed to cater for a wide variety of inshore and near-shore fishing styles. Whether you fish up far north Queensland or the Northern Territory for barra, queenfish or mangrove jack or along the east and southern states of Australia and jig for snapper there is a Penn Fathom Saltwater Low Profile Baitcaster Reel for you.

Here at the Fishing Tackle Shop, we have for sale two models. The Penn Squall Baitcaster and the Penn Fathom Baitcatser. Both models sport similar characteristics and come in a 200, 300 or big 400 size. The Fathom is the top of the line model, and the Squall sits just beneath the Fathom. Some critical distinctions between the two are that the Fathom baitcaster sports handle knob upgrades and an aluminium cranking side plate versus graphite on the Squall Baitcaster reel. It is not only the knobs and side plates though which differentiate the two, but we will also cover other differences below in or Penn Squall Vs Penn fathom baitcaster reel section.

Both Fathom and Squall baitcaster models feature high to super-high speeds. Some of the gear ratio's are incredible; up to a blistering 9.2:1 gear ratio (depending on the model you select). Penn has changed the game! Step outside your baitcast comfort zone and spin lures back to the boat, poppers or chase overall fast fish. For species that may not require such a blistering fast retrieve like barra, you have not been forgotten with the gear ratio modes of 6.6:1 and 7.3:1 for sale in either series.
