Penn International VI Conventional Fishing Reels

The Penn International series is widely regarded as one of the best big game conventional reels on the market. This is nothing new either, as the International Series has been regarded as the premier casting reel since the original series debuted more than 50 years ago.

Anyone in the market for a battle-tested, quality casting/trolling reel for pursuing blue water trophy fish should take a hard look at this reel. The all-metal International Series has been the flagship model for the company and the go-to big game fishing reel for countless sport fishermen for decades. But it’s been a while since we’ve seen anything new from the series, until recently that it is!

After 15 years, the Penn International finally returns with a new line-up, the International VI – the sixth generation in the illustrious series.

The release of the Penn International VI has certainly got anglers excited, as the latest International comes with some awesome improvements over the already outstanding V series, not to mention a few new features that are a first for the series.

• Machined and anodized aluminum body and side plates
• Stainless steel main and pinion gears
• Quick-shift II 2-speed System
• Dura-Drag System
• Versa-strike adjustable strike Stop
