Where, When, How

Where: The PENN Spinfisher VI 8500 is ideal for saltwater environments, from coastal surf fishing to deep-sea boat fishing. Its perfect for targeting larger species like striped bass, tarpon, or yellowtail.

When: This reel performs best during seasons when larger fish are active, typically spring and fall for surf fishing and year-round offshore.

How: Use a heavy-action rod to match the power of the Spinfisher VI 8500, especially when using heavier lines. This reels superior drag system allows you to control and wear down hard-fighting fish, making it easier to reel in larger catches.
