Description

Battle II spinning reels have Penn's HT-100 Versa-Drag washers keyed into the spool which allows both sides of each drag washer to be used. This gives the Battle II higher max drags, more range, and smoother start ups than the competition. All HT-100 washers are greased with Penn's proprietary PENN grease for longevity.

  • SMOOOOOOTH!!
Style: Battle III Size: 5000
The retrieval is smooth with no lag when you stop and strong enough to bring in the big boys on the bank, pier or deep sea. I put this reel on all my rods because it’s dependable.

  • It was a toss up
Style: Battle III High Speed Size: 4000
I was torn between the Penn and the Daiwa BG, both 4000 models. I did a lot of research, and I already own a BG 4000, but I needed a second for a trip to Costa Rica. Everyone was pushing me to the BG, but I bought the Penn because it is over 2oz lighter, its main gear is machined brass, and it is machined CNC metal. Will all this make a difference? Will it fish better? I don't know. The price point is the same, you can't go wrong with either. ... show more

  • Bad experience with first order
Style: Battle III Size: 6000
I bought this Penn Battle III 6000 based on online reviews to go on my 11’ surf rod. The first order I received from Amazon was nothing what I expected. In the new Penn box was a used and well abused reel, not even the 6000 model but the 5000 with a missing handle (see pics). It looked like someone snagged it off the bottom of the sea. The replacement was just as expected, a new beautiful well made reel. It is smooth and has solid components. One thing I read is that it doesn’t spool line evenly, this one did but it comes with different thickness gasket and instructions so you can remedy this if by any chance it doesn’t. A simple fix. Haven’t got a chance to use it yet but I’m expecting it to perform as good as it looks if not I will update. FISH ON! ... show more

  • Customer service meh...
Style: Battle III Size: 3000
I surf fish often. I am usually knee deep in water and the reels get splashed as waves hit me and splash up. They rarely get dunked completely but it sometimes happens for very short periods so it's mostly salt water intrusion that I am concerned about over time. Sand intrusion has never been an issue. I disassemble and grease/oil the reels myself on a regular basis. I have owned 4 Battle II reels. All have performed well but all have had the same issues. The bearings hold up surprisingly well. I have rarely had a bearing failure if maintained. The gears however are made out of a metal that corrodes and wears relatively quickly. The brass pinion gear also corrodes and seems to wear or distort under continued use. The good news is the metal bodies are rigid and hold up/do not distort so I just order new gears and the reels function excellently. (BTW...If you are looking for a light weight reel, these are not it...they are not super heavy but not light either) The new Battle III has several improvements. The gears are CNC machined and seem to be of nicer quality. There is has been one problem. In the pictures you will see the crosswind bar. This essential little part in the new Battle III is machined very thin on the back side. My relatively new reel was functioning well but I disassembled it for its first maintenance and found the bar to be broken but still attached and functioning. To me it appears that this seems like a design flaw. The part is too thin on the back edge and from the pictures I think you would agree. I was nervous putting in the replacement part because I was concerned the screw pressure would break it. I called Penn customer service. I described the issue and offered to send photos. Once I told the agent I was surf fishing with it he kind of cut me off and said basically they didn't cover the reel for that kind of use. Now they are promoted as a salt water reel and especially good for surf fishing so I was not so happy. He was pretty firm about this. I asked if they would at least send out a replacement part. He said they do not send out parts. They also have few parts in stock because of supply chain issues and referred me to a third party, Mystic Reel Parts. I could have sent in the reel for repair but at my own expense. Anyway...decent reel for the price. Design, drag, bearings, housing are all good. If you are a regular user, frequent maintenance is the key (not just a spray down with a hose) and be ready to replace gears. Customer service leaves something to be desired. Your mileage may vary. ... show more
