Defiance 40LW Level Wind Conventional Reel
With its lightweight design and smooth operation, Penn’s Defiance 40 Level Wind Reel subdues disobedient fish.
This saltwater reel is not only affordable; it is also built with high-quality materials and high-tech construction. The lightweight graphite frame and side plates are complemented by a forged, machined and anodized aluminum spool. Stainless steel frame rings improve rigidity and prevent “frame-flex” while the Level Wind allows you to lay the line on the spool evenly. This reel features a machine-cut, marine-grade bronze main gear with a hardened, stainless steel pinion gear for excellent durability and strength while the HT-100 carbon-fiber drag washers provide smooth drag under heavy loads. The three line capacity rings are easy to see so you can tell how many yards are left on your spool during battle. Four shielded stainless steel bearings with instant anti-reverse provide smooth casting and retrieving. Finally, the large knob on the handle makes retrieving more comfortable and easier.
