The all-new Penn Fathom II 2-Speed Lever Drag Reels represent the evolution of a class-leading platform, engineered for serious offshore anglers targeting tuna, yellowtail, and white seabass. By integrating the palm sideplate directly into the frame, Penn has created a more compact, lighter, and stronger reel that delivers exceptional performance when it matters most.
Imagine fighting a hard-charging yellowfin on the troll—the Quick Shift II 2-speed system lets you transition instantly from high-speed retrieve to low-gear power, while the Pull-to-Turn preset knobs ensure your drag settings stay locked exactly where you need them. The one-piece frame construction eliminates flex under load, and the stainless steel main and pinion gears provide the durability required for season after season of heavy use.
Important Note: Penn recently updated the handle design on 2-Speed Fathom reels from the power handle to a football handle and removed the ported sections for increased strength. Our inventory includes both versions—product images are linked to each variant to show you exactly which handle style you'll receive.
Key Features:
- Full metal body and sideplate construction
- One-piece frame and palm sideplate for reduced weight and increased rigidity
- Removable top spacer bar and lugs (60 and 80 sizes only)
- Stainless steel main and pinion gear
- Quick Shift II 2-speed system for instant gear changes
- Pull-to-Turn preset drag adjustment

An exceptional value in saltwater conventional reels, the Daiwa Seagate delivers a premium component package — aluminum spool, metal star drag, and a composite frame — at a price point that makes it one of the most capable conventional reels available for the money. The aluminum spool provides the rigidity and heat dissipation needed for sustained drag pressure on hard-fighting fish, while the light yet strong composite frame keeps the reel comfortable for all-day use on the water. The metal star drag is smooth and features a positive click that lets you know if the drag has been accidentally adjusted during a fight — and locks the star against vibration from the boat.
The Seagate's drag system handles heavy braid-to-topshot setups well beyond its rated line capacity — the 65–80 lb braid with topshots up to 80 lb is a proven setup for tuna, yellowtail, and white seabass. Excellent castability makes it effective as both a live bait rod reel and a jig stick.
Key Features
- Aluminum Spool — Rigid aluminum construction provides the strength and heat dissipation needed for sustained drag pressure on hard-fighting saltwater species; more durable than graphite spools under heavy load.
- Metal Star Drag — Smooth drag with positive click detents that indicate drag adjustment and lock the star against vibration from the boat; prevents accidental drag changes during a fight.
- Light Composite Frame — Strong yet lightweight composite frame keeps the reel comfortable for all-day use; balances durability with weight for extended fishing sessions.
- 3CRBB + 1 Bearing System — 3 corrosion-resistant ball bearings plus 1 roller bearing for smooth, reliable operation in saltwater environments.
- High-Speed Retrieve — 6.1:1 (20H/30H) and 6.4:1 (35H–50H) gear ratios for fast line recovery on live bait and jigging applications.
- Heavy Braid Capable — Handles 65–80 lb braid with topshots up to 80 lb for tuna, yellowtail, and white seabass applications beyond the rated mono capacity.
- Dual Application — Excellent castability makes it effective as both a live bait rod reel and a jig stick across all 5 sizes.

Precision-Engineered Versatility for Serious Anglers
The Avet JX G2 Lever Drag Reel delivers exceptional versatility through optimized line capacity, powerful drag performance, and a narrow-spool design that excels in both vertical jigging and casting applications.
Why the JX Profile Matters
The JX's taller, narrower spool design offers distinct advantages over the MX series:
- Faster line retrieval: Increased spool diameter delivers more inches per crank without sacrificing torque
- Easier line management: Narrower profile reduces side-to-side travel when respooling
- Vertical fishing advantage: Optimized geometry for deep drops and rapid retrieval
MC Cast Control System
Five magnetic settings (1-5) provide precise spool control during the cast. Higher settings reduce backlash risk and actually increase distance—especially valuable for anglers transitioning to conventional reels. Setting 1 offers maximum spool freedom; Setting 5 delivers maximum control.
2-Speed Advantage
Switch to low gear when fighting circling fish near the boat. The increased torque lets you rest the rod on the rail and crank steadily against horizontal resistance—less fatigue, more control, better hookup-to-landing ratio.
