    The Penn Pursuit 3 is absolutely the best value in the market. Awesome reels. I have a 6000 and a 2500 myself. And I love them!

    This is a GREAT reel. I have a 6000 and a 4000 and have never even thought of buying any other reel. I've caught 150+ pound tarpon and 20+ lb slob snooks with ease, highly recommend it.

    This is one of the best made reels I know of for this price 🐟

    That is cheap! Bigger than what I normally use but the 2500 is a common size for most people. Nice 👍

    Quite underrated reel, many say Sienna is the bargain but it's not a patch on this reel. It's basically a Battle with graphite body which in a 2500 is a bonus as it's lighter, the sealing isn't as good but then again the Battle is not sealed all that well (though neither is it's Dawia/Shimano competition) - if you want great seals get a Spinfisher VI which is a superb reel all around.

    I’ve been doing a lot of research and I still don’t know what parts are plastic I think it’s the rotor but I’m not sure

    It's a good reel my friends have them I can't find any out of stock. If your trying to get a few rods going quickly and don't have a ton of cash this is your reel . You get the big boy drag with out the price. It will last or you want a strong beater set up for those dirty areas and candy your better reels and rods you payed big money for not wanting to scratch them all up and get them all dirty or stolen when flying . This reel is a work horse.

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely a workhorse reel. They are still widely available on Amazon. Thanks for the comment!

  • @SJBassin
    @SJBassin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The only downside I can find about this reel is it is about 4 oz. heavier than other reels. For some people that is a game breaker. It isn't for me. And these are STILL going strong as of today.

  • @jeffreybabino8161

    What is the other reel with the blue finish you are showing 😊

    I guess it doesn't matter if you use it for freshwater?

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope and its a little beefier due to they are designing it for that environment. It really is an awesome solid reel and NO REEL can compete with it at it's price point. This is easily 80-100 dollars build quality for 37 Bucks.

  • @kevinoreilly2504
    @kevinoreilly2504 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Its not sealed at all. It has "shielded" ball bearings. Whatever that means. GREAT REEL though, dont get me wrong. Got mine for $31 after tax on amazon last year .

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tomato tomato it's just the way I say it is all. They are either shielded or unshielded I guess I should have started that better but the reels do have seals to help with keeping water out of the bearings.

    I just got the 3000 and I'm wondering if its right handed or even switchable thanks

    what rod did you pair the penn with?

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Depends on what size reel. 2500 anything from Medium/light to medium heavy and 3000 and up goes from there. I have my 3000 matched to a 7" Tsunami Sea Tech rod

    • @Robert-hr6sh
      @Robert-hr6sh 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      He mentioned the rod that the reel is matched with in his video 👍👍 tight lines.

  • @jackdude2626
    @jackdude2626 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good job, well built and light weight, got a 2500 for $39 and a 4000 for $49 on Amazon, 2500 combo with Pursuit lll 7ft rod for $59 from Tackle Direct (best rod packing ever)

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wait til you get it on the water they are rock stars for the money. I just bought another 2500 combo as well. Couldn't pass it up for under 70 bucks either.

  • @robertabrams91
    @robertabrams91 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does it flex under load?

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Extreme load, too heavy braid and the drag locked yes, but people catch big stripers on the east coast with these each year and if you destroy it, it is 36.00 buy a new one.

    @albertlemont5471 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You base this on what?

    • @SJBassin
      @SJBassin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Build, performance, looks it has the same drag as the battle 2 at a fraction of the cost. It's also designed for salt water usage all of 36.00

    • @albertlemont5471
      @albertlemont5471 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SJBassin ya may be right now that I think about it. The battle is a decent reel but I was never really impressed with it. My Diawa BG is tough to beat though.
