    I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well kzread.infoUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.

    This is perfect for what I'm looking for: workhorse that's good for kayaking or surf fishing where I or friends new to fishing can use it without feeling terrible banging it around accidentally 😅 ive been making due with some old hand me down poles and reels but pretty sure something rusted out cause it doesn't move at all to distribute the line evenly when reeling in. At some point I'm gonna need a replacement so I'll keep an eye out for these. Thanks for talking through these details and the pros/cons in such a way that even I understood it with the limited knowledge I have currently. 👍

    Fierce 2 has an all metal body and side plate and a "composite" rotor, the Battle 2 has an extra ball bearing compared to the Fierce 2, metal rotor, and HT-100 carbon drag. The new Pursuit 3 has a graphite body and rotor with a metal side plate, the upgrades are the metal handle and the HT-100 carbon drag. I wouldn't say the Pursuit 3 destroys the Fierce 2 but it is a close comparison. Penn is releasing their new Fierce 3 now too.

They also come in 1000 (just recently bought 2)and 2500 sizes and they're all the same $29.99,only difference between my old and the new is the color.New color is a goldish/silver color.

    Penn Pursuit series of reels use graphite bodies. I've used graphite spinning reels all my life and I have never ever had a single problem with graphite composite fishing reels. I have the Pursuit II 3000 reel and I find the bail wire is quite thick and well made. The bail wire is quite heavy duty so you will have to manually flip the bail back after each cast ~ which isn't a big deal since the 3000 is a bigger reel made for light saltwater as well. No anti-reverse switch on the Penn Pursuit series of spinning reels but I never ever use anti-reverse anyway.

    Victor Ramos if you are fishing inshore the smaller the better. I bought this 4k because it was the one they had on the shelf I prefer size 3k and smaller unless I’m targeting big stuff and even then 5k is the biggest I go.

    Something I noticed when fishing every evening with a high $ Plueger after the reel got a bit sticky (even though I was rinsing and spraying a bit ) after I reversed winded the small bit of sticky salt deposit wound right out. My other new spinning reel has no anti reverse and just for this reason I will always buy anti reverse reels.

I bawt all 3 combos in 2018 have cawt thousands of fish made hundred of thousands of cast prob millions the gears been 100% problem free now keep in mind for the last decade I've cleaned,inspected,lubed an maintained all my gear myself. Lately I've gotten into the habit of going directly to a store Cabelas/Bass Pro either finding the rod I own there or 1 that weighs Simular to mine go find the proper reel that fits near perfect meaning balances out and feels comfortable in my hands putting on the rod and I'll stand there 30min or so and make sure everything works correctly. I also open up the line I buy to check breaking strength. Why? I've been burned in the past buying a bulk spool of Line and the spool being on the shelf so long with store lights on it the entire spool of line broke with only maybe a pound of force being put on it. Luckily I only lost 10$. If the store ever complains for any reason I'll purchase gear an go outside an check it out there.
