Q&A
For trolling or deep drop fishing, the Penn® Warfare Levelwind Reel offers the versatility and performance you seek, at a surprisingly affordable price. Strong and reliable, it's built for long days and heavy seas, with a lightweight, corrosion-resistant graphite frame and sideplates edged in stainless steel for extra rigidity to prevent frame-flex. Its forged-and-machined aluminum spool, machined brass main and pinion gears, and heavy-duty cranking handle are all designed to stand up to the daily rigors of saltwater fishing, and Penn's proven drag system is built around super-efficient HT-100 carbon fiber washers to ensure smooth drag performance despite the heavy loads. Line capacity rings on the spool walls help you gauge how much line remains on the spool—handy when large fish take off on their blistering runs. Equipped with bearing-supported instant anti-reverse.

15 LWLCI purchased the 15 level wind Line counter and couldn't be happier with the reel. I fish king salmon , lingcod and rockfish off the Oregon coast. The line counter could use some improvement but the reel preforms amazingly! Fishing deep water ( 300ft +) in the ocean for lingcod and halibut, I really am amazed at the performance of this reel for its size and price. I just bought another. I am also ordering the 20 in the same reel primarily for more line capacity /deep water

Light Saltwater & surprise salmon castingMakes a great light saltwater reel for rockfish & lingcod. Needed some extra line capacity for 30 lb mono and a stronger 15 lb drag. Bought it for trolling and party boat fishing but I don't fish the party boats very much so I had to try out the new reel drifting beads for Salmon. A little different with a lever release instead of a thumb release but I cast and cast and it was easy to use and casts smoothly. I even caught a few jacks with it that were quickly landed with the 15 lb drag. The extra capacity was good for free spooling and letting out extra line. I was really surprised by how smooth the reel cast instead of just dropping a heavy sinker straight down from a party boat.

Great performanceThis real worked great fishing for Tuna. No issues and re-spooled great. The drag adjustment is quick and easy to adjust. I might need another one of these to replace my backup real.

Pacific coast fishingPurchased this product w the intention of doing some charter fishing out of SD. The reel performed excellently. Large yellotails, lingcod and a small thresher shark were nothing for it. Used 40 lbs braid w a 30lbs mono top shot and I was happy w this reels performance. Had a sea lion leave me with a head of a yellowtail on my hook and he knew I was not giving up my fish wo a fight...he won but the reel withstood some massive pressure. After I use my equipment I rinse it and oil it and used it again and again.
Primarily a freshwater bass guy landlocked in the desert southwest, I believe this product is ideal for us occasional saltwater fisherman who love to fish but don't live near the ocean. It was perfect for taking on the sport fishing boats in San Diego. If I did more regular saltwater fishing then I would upgrade considerably, but for throwing a live anchovy on a dropper loop this reel was perfect.

Great valueI own four of these so far. Both the 15 and 20. I troll for big trout and salmon requiring a good drag and a lot of line capacity. These have been flawless so far.
How’s much line of 20lb mono will the size 15 hold? And if i got the 30 in left hand how much backing of mono to braid should be used like 40/60 ratio mono to braid wise like 30 lb mono backing and 50lb braid like how much backing of 30 should be used?

What size reel to match with a ugly stik tiger light medium heavy? Would be for party boat, kayak trolling, kayak chunking, for sharks, small to medium tuna, stripers, blues, lunker snook, possibly tarpon, and maybe grouper?

How dose the War 20 / 30 compare to the overall size of a Penn jigmastrer.
Just lost a Penn Jigmaster to Davy Jones. Used it for everything from Fluke to Strippers. Looking to replace with something a little lighter, but with still the speed & power, without breaking the bank..
Asked by: freshstart
Thank you for choosing Bass Pro Shops. The WAR30 would be the most similar to the Jigmaster with a weight of 19.6oz and a capacity of 360/30lb mono.

which model is good for fish like tuna or yellowtail?
Asked by: Edamame
Thank you for your inquiry. Any one of these would work for tuna or yellowtail, especially if you're using braided line. I would say start with the model: WAR20LW, or go up from there.
