Best Fishing Reel, Penn, Shimano, Daiwa or ?
This question is probably more of a poll on your opinion.
I am based in the Pacific Islands and we can get some sinister fish hook ups.
I use Shimano equipment for Landbased Game Fishing and Penn for My Offshore Sport Fishing.
Some people say just pick one or the other!
I’m quite fond of the Penn HT100 Drag System. I think it is vastly superior in stopping power and life to the Shimano.
What are your findings?
From your description of where you are fishing the is nothing that can beat a Penn reel. If I was going to be fishing in an out of the way place the two reels I would want is a Jigmaster 500, and 113H 4/0. They are simple, easy to fix in the field, and parts for these reels if needed can be found almost anywhere. These two reels were the most in demand from foreign tourist that I came into contact with when I was in the retail tackle business.
I agree with your feelings about the HT 100 Drag System. They last and don’t fade under pressure and heat.
