Penn's Fathom II Lever Drag Reels, what's changed, better, worse?
PLEASE note, Steve Carson a friend for over 20 years and "Penn's Ambassador" to the public corrected a major error of mine regarding the single speed 40N. The reel won't fill the slot the prior model did for us as a high speed wahoo bomb reel. The 60 and 40 size single speeds will be optimized to fish LIGHT drag, optimized for 20# mono. Call 'em sailfish or even light line kingfish reels. DARN!!! Steve also offered that this was one reason why Penn uppped the high gear ratio of the 2 speed 40NLD to 6:1 rather than 4:1.
