Penn Wrath II spinning Reel

The PENN Wrath II Spinning Reel combines straightforward design, useful saltwater features and excellent value. PENN offers the range in sizes from 2500 through to 8000. Therefore, anglers can choose a Wrath II for everything from light spinning to heavier shore fishing.

PENN uses a lightweight, corrosion-resistant graphite body throughout the range. This keeps the reel manageable while providing protection for coastal fishing. Meanwhile, the machined and anodised aluminium spool adds strength where it matters.

Inside, PENN uses a 2+1 shielded stainless steel bearing system. This provides a smooth and dependable retrieve without adding unnecessary complexity. In addition, the Instant Anti-Reverse bearing gives positive engagement when striking or working a lure.

The spool also features line capacity rings. These markings make it easy to see how much line remains on the spool. As a result, you can quickly check line levels while fishing or when preparing the reel.

Smaller Wrath II models suit lighter applications particularly well. The 2500, 3000 and 4000 sizes use a fast 6.2:1 gear ratio. Consequently, they make practical choices for spinning and lure fishing where quick line recovery helps.

For heavier fishing, the 5000 and 6000 models use a 5.6:1 ratio and provide 20lb of maximum drag. The large 8000 uses a 5.3:1 ratio with 25lb of drag. It also provides substantially more line capacity for heavier shore and sea fishing.

Overall, the PENN Wrath II offers a simple route into PENN's spinning reel range. It makes particular sense for beginners and occasional anglers. However, it also works well as an affordable backup reel for more experienced anglers.

Performance

The Wrath II focuses on dependable everyday performance rather than expensive features. Smaller models provide fast line recovery for spinning. Meanwhile, larger sizes offer greater capacity and drag power for heavier sea fishing.
