These reels are designed for fishing braided fishing line and have a bullet-proof drag system to match. Many products on the market talk about high drag settings and capabilities but fail to put in the small print that you sacrifice usability by employing such extreme drag curves. This can (and usually does) result in snapped lines, bent hooks, and lost fish. The Penn VSX reels were designed around this very problem and the result is the ability to achieve extreme drag settings while still delivering a smooth curve and better usability.
The Penn Senator series of reels have been around for ages and, as time has shown, are among the strongest, most durable reels from any company, period. As a trolling or boat reel, the Senator is an icon in the industry and you can find these reels still in action decades after they were produced. With this kind of history, it is no wonder that the Senator from Penn is responsible for more IGFA record catches than all other makes of big game fishing reels combined.
