First and foremost, the smoothness of this reel's operation is unmatched. Whether casting out a lightweight lure or battling a hefty catch, the Pursuit IV delivers consistently fluid motion, thanks to its precision-engineered design. This smoothness not only enhances the overall fishing experience but also ensures precise control over lure presentation and fish fighting.Durability is another area where the Pursuit IV shines. Constructed with high-quality materials and built to withstand the rigors of saltwater environments, this reel is a dependable companion for both casual outings and intense fishing adventures. I've subjected it to saltwater spray, sand, and challenging weather conditions, and it has held up admirably without compromising performance.Overall, I can't recommend the PENN Pursuit IV Spinning Fishing Reel highly enough. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting out, this reel delivers the perfect combination of performance, durability, and value. Invest in the Pursuit IV, and you'll be reeling in memorable catches for years to come.

I bought the Penn Pursuit 4000 to go surf fishing. This reel really is every bit as good as a $250-$300 reel. It is smooth, strong and the drag is amazing……the value for your money with this reel is unsurpassed. You will not be disappointed!

I first bought one of these at a tackle shop for saltwater. It was a Pursuit III 4000. Absolutely loved it. Then I got a pursuit II 5000 for another saltwater rod. Loved so much changed out my freshwater bass rod to a Pursuit IV 3000. Most recently an older reel pissed me off for the last time on my crappie rod so I ordered this Pursuit III 2500. I love them all for all their fishing scenarios. I plan to get one of each of the higher series as well. My go to reel from here on out. I fish saltwater, freshwater, cold water, and Ice. This reel holds up against everything. The drag system works flawlessly. And reel has a fast smooth easy retrieve. And it’s a perfect budget reel!! I won’t buy anything else

Fished w/ my new Penn Pursuit 2500 spinning reel a couple times so far lake fishing rainbow trout & smallmouth bass. Really like the smooth casting action w/ 8lb mono line. Drag works well. Looks well made & seems like it will likely last for yrs, good value for the price, would recommend.

My 1st 'newer' Penn reel,( I have many from the 70's). I bought it for Freshwater, all around use in Streams and ponds in NH. Using 15lb test Magreel (Amazon)Black Braided line, which is Super thin, same thickness as 4lb Mono line, but 15lb strength. The Penn I bought was a Pursuit III, 2500 Series and it perfectly matched with a 1 piece, 6 foot Medium-Light action Berkley "Shock" rod. The small diameter braid allowed me to spool 275+ yds on it. I like a full spool, so I can cut off 6 foot or so after tough brush/rocky fishing. Perfect for Truck,Trail/Train Track fishing! 1 spool up lasts me a whole season (75+ trips)!!! I mostly fish Trout and the occasional Bass/Pickerel pond up here in New England. The reel is nice, light and Incredibly smooth...better than ANY Box Store combo...Hands down. The 1st thing i noticed was the fact that it doesn't reverse like all the 'sloppy' cheapo reels, what I mean is, when you stop reeling, if you try to back-pedal, it won't! ...And that is a GOOD thing !! If you have any experience fishing you'll know the deal, you cast, you reel forward to close the bail, and the bail 'rolls back' spitting the line off your reel...THIS Reel solves that!! It will not reverse! Locks tight. Some reels allow 'Free Bail' (Backwards Reeling), this reel does Not, No switch/lever...this is PRO Level Stuff for the regular guy... I like that, some don't...It does allow you to switch the handle to either side, So you won't be that guy that "fishes upside down" we have all seen....The reel is very impressive with a 6:2 to reel 1 ratio, super smooth casting and incredible carbon fiber drag washers! no more oil/felt ancient tech here! It had nice Marine Grade Blue grease on the gears and components, and was ready to rock. This is "Braid Friendly", so the spool has a nice black rubber insert so you can spool braided line with a basic knot, and be done with it. No 'Line-Slip' !!! Nice Job Penn !!! and Thank You ! This reel works with Mono too, but why would you? Mono is outdated. A hair thin braided line is invisible in ANY water, not as UV sensitive, MUCH stronger by average 400% in relation to size. You can fish a whole season with it. KUDOS to Penn for making a great Reel in the under $50 range !!! I love it, and I'm ordering a 3000 Series Penn Pursuit 3 Reel for a 7' Ugly stick to chase Big Lake Trout and Bass off the boat this summer ! Super impressed with Penn, Again !!!!

Purchased the Pursuit III 6000 for pier fishing in the ocean. Have had tremendous luck with this reel. Dropped it about 4-5 times from various heights of 2 - 4ft and haven’t had a single malfunction or issue with performance. This reel may take a scratch or two but performance is solid regardless of drops. I use 25lb big game line which is the max rated mono this reel can handle and have had great success as the images I’ve uploaded can show. Probably around a 12lb jack was caught using this reel and a catfish ugly stik. The drag has never been fully locked down and has brought up about 10+ fish at this point without any problems. The biggest one I the picture it handled with ease. Honestly for the cost of this reel and ease of use compared to a bait caster or having to use a conventional reel and wind by hand this thing is much more efficient and can do it all. Casting distance is significantly farther then previous reels used such as the Quantum Optix and a plethora of baitcast reels. 5/5 would highly recommend. Do very little maintenance and have even forgot to lock down the drag while spraying this with water and it still performs flawlessly. Highly recommend pairing with an ugly stik.P.S. for all the haters that said squid is for “newbies” this jack along with many other fish were caught solely on squid. Maybe don’t spread around one mans opinion and make it fact if you don’t know what you’re really talking about. Highly recommend this reel!
