Penn Conflict II Long Cast Spinning Reels
The PENN Conflict II Long Cast Spinning Reels are a development upon the success of the original Conflict II. As the market grows there are two main criticisms that surf anglers have of long cast reels. The first is that most long cast reels are generally very heavy and the second is that there ar...e very few long cast reels that are built to withstand exposure to saltwater. Thats why Penn has introduced three long cast models of their lightest spinning reel theyve ever made the Conflict II. The light weight of these reels combined with an extra long spool and slow oscillating rotor to lay line parallel to itself will greatly enhance your distance casting capabilities. The CNC Gear Technology along with the RR30 body and rotor make the Conflict II Long Cast one of the more durable and technically advanced surf reels with long cast capabilities.Conflict II Long Cast Features:Rigid Resin RR30 Techno-balanced rotorCNC Gear TechnologyHT-100 carbon fiber drag washers7+1 stainless steel ball bearing systemLeveline oscillationBrass pinion gear on all modelsAluminum main gear on all modelsSuperline spoolLine capacity rings

Light, but not for big fish

this is a really interesting reel. super light weight, but i found that the stem of the foot flexed under load. i had a keeper size striper on and i was honestly worried that i was going to snap it. i couldnt believe how much it flexed.
it really does cast super far and the handle/knob is very comfortable. i really wanted to like this reel, especially since i am a penn…

i really think it would be better for reef fishing or pompano type fish from the beach

I purchased the 8000LC model and tested it out for 5 hours straight. Worked it hard. Made hundreds of casting. I was totally impressed with its performance. It gave me more casting distance and a faster retrieve. Graring powerful and strong. The size of the reel has a lighter frame which was another plus. For the price of this reel wont cost you an arm as other brands. Totally…

Awesome reel, I love it. I have put it through its paces so far this season on the east end of long island. From the ocean surf, back bay beaches, docks, jetties and bulk heads. Ive caught everything from stripers to porgeys. My casting distance has improved and line lay is perfect everytime, even when pencil popping. Only one wind knot so far and thats cause I over spooled it and… read more havent had a problem since. The Drag is great, smooth and strong but no surprises there, its a penn drag. The reel itself is also very smooth. I feel like theres no fish out of distance when paired to either of my rockaway surf rods. I am very happy with my purchase and recommend to everyone.

In the photos of the reel, it looks like there is an anti-reverse on/off switch on the base of the reel below the stem, is that the case, or is that just an oddly angled photo?
Rebecca Redington

No there is no switch.
