Deep dropping with the new Penn Hooker Electric reel 

for all the captins videos are bloody enjoyable fishing just to see these blokes catching fish and enjoying the day, with well good information no matter what the go is

Awesome video! I can't wait to try out the new Penn Hooker Electric reel. The features seem great and the reel looks super durable. Love the ocean assassin rod too.

@2.03...... not the big tackle we thought we would see

Just as others have mentioned, it does need a dab of oil before you use it ru-vid.comUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e - put a few drops in through the convenient screw cap and you are good to go! I have fished several weeks with a couple of these, and I will be getting more in the future. I put these against my Abu Garcia Pro Max reel, and they actually perform a bit better than the Abu with some of my lighter cranks, and definitely just as good with the rest of my lures. My Abu is a bit more low profile and fits my hand better, but these are definitely not bad at all. You can almost get 3 of these for the price of my Pro Max. My only complaint is the thumb bar sits pretty high compared to my traditional profile Abu. Bring that thumb bar down a little and I’m sold on these all day long.

Thanks for the video. I am new to deep drop fishing and hope to get out fishing at Brown's Mt in Sydney. What rods do you recommend in the 37kg class? I just ordered a Penn Ocean Assassin 37kg Drop rod online. I when it arrived, I was quite shocked at the lightweight guides. It now has me worried about it's durability over time. Nige

Cool

LoL, I see Barry made a guest appearance. Is there a subtle reference there ?

600 metres OMG

Pickles!

6k wowsers

Drop 6kg lead in 600m with the $2kaud Daiwa 1200mj megatwin all day long. 60kg bass easily.

Should be good for 5k reel lol
