Designed to push the limits

The name Slammer needs little introduction in saltwater circles. Synonymous with being downright bulletproof and lasting the distance no matter the conditions, it's developed a cult following amongst anglers pursuing the toughest ocean predators for a reason.

PENN's new Slammer IV spinning range takes the ultimate workhorse reel to another level. Whether you're live baiting in the surf, spinning from the rocks, popper fishing a coral reef, deepwater jigging or switchbaiting a billfish, the Slammer IV range won't let you down. Let the battle begin.

Whatever saltwater adversary gets you out of bed of a morning, rise to the occasion with a reel built to conquer. Hear why the Slammer IV stands above the rest in performance and durability against the toughest species in the harshest conditions, from anglers who spend enough time on the sea to have salt running through their veins.

Exmouth
Josh Bryunzeel, on Strike Charters

After a lifetime chasing trophy fish the world over, Josh settled in the remote sportfishing paradise that is Exmouth, WA, establishing On Strike Charters over a decade ago.

Renowned for having the world's longest fringing reef only a mile from the shore, the fishing options in Exmouth are what dreams are made of, from various billfish species to GTs, red bass, jobfish, emperor and coral trout readily accessible.

"Moving to the Slammer range has been unbelievable. What I need when running a remote business is a reel with excellent waterproofing and great drags out of the box...the gearing is just bulletproof, and we give them a hiding."

Bay of plenty
Zane Levett, Ocean Hunter Sportfishing

Between guiding onboard Ocean Hunter Sportfishing Charters and growing up avidly fishing along the east coast of Australia, Zane Levett has seen, caught and released more kingfish in his 18 years than most would dream of for a lifetime.

For any serious Aussie kingie angler though, the stories of the incredible size the species grow to in New Zealand more than whet the appetite to make the trip across the ditch. For Zane, it was time for dreams to become a reality, as he connected with Sam Wilkinson from PENN NZ to push the limits in pursuit of the kingfish of a lifetime.

"I flog my gear, and the PENN Slammer has been an absolute game changer for me. We run them on the charter, I run them personally, and I've had no problems. They've got such solid gearing, such nice drag... it's smooth as butter. Unbeatable stopping power."
