Thank you just picked up the fierce 4 combo because of this video! Helped me make the decision because of the sealed bearings

Glad it helped! Make sure to check back and let me know how it worked out for you

I have zero complaints about the fierce line up, live liner also. Caught 60 - 100lb catfish, 100lb+ stingrays, and 7ft+ gar. It's a workhorse! Very dependable.

100% agree. I’ve hauled in some big boys myself with these reels, but not only that they are a non-trophy fish workhorse. Can’t even count the amount of smaller fish these reels have handled for me

Thanks. I try to make them how I’d like to see them.

I was told my fierce 3 8000 reels (I bought two on sale at sportsman wholesale) and was told they have completely sealed ball bearings

Whatsup brotha, nice review! 👍👍

Thanks!

My Penn Fierce 2 in 3000/4000 size for carp and they have worked well for years. Those dual drag reels are great for this style of fishing. I generally use 10lb mono and small hooks size 4-2 for fish up to 20lbs.

I also use Penn Fierce 4000s for carp. I’ve pulled in 20-30lb with them easily. The dual drag is great to for carp because you don’t have to set the hook. Just deactivate the live liner and the fight is on

Im thinking of making the Penn Fierce IV LL my next reel, gonna pair it with a medium heavy ugly stik, just need to think if i want the 4000 or 6000

The 6000 will hold more line, that’s the only advantage over the 4000.

Do we get to see the 4 in action this summer??

Maybe…. Still deciding

Is one louder (main drag/ liver liner clicker) or do they sound the same?

They sounded the same. Both pretty quite compared to other brands

Thanks! I just got a version iv 6000 live liner. Beautiful reel, but very quite. My Okuma CDX65 and ABF 65 are way louder. I’m taking it out on my Ugly Tiger tomorrow, hope to lock into some giant flatheads at the canal. 🤞🏽

No, it has a whole different gear system inside

Doesn’t the fierce only have 1 sealed ball bearing. Offering size 1000-8000?

@BitesandStrikesFishing

I believe the 3 has 1 sealed and the 4 has all sealed.

I bet the Battle IV gets the Spinfisher seal and the Spinfisher IV gets the Slammer IPSX6 seal and the Slammer IV gets the new super duper XXX seal.

It will be interesting to see. The battle 3 has been one of their best in the line up and an award winning reel for them

I'd say Penn just wants to charge more. Now My Spinfisher 6000 is a beast with huge line capacity and a superb drag.

I also have the Spinfisher and it is a great reel. I think due to the price the Fierce is the more popular of the 2. Both great reels

@@jamestboehm6450 for sure. The Spinfisher is about $100, but you do get more features for the extra cost.
