Great product
I can do anything from troll to jig with this reel.
Powerful
I use this as my 50# flyline outfit or yo-yo/coltsniper setup here in SOCAL for tuna and yellowtail. I rigged my 40NLD2 with 500 yards of 60# Seaguar threadlock and was able to get 50 yards of 50# Momoi Diamond mono on top. I have plenty of capacity for fish pushing 100 pounds and maybe even a little bigger. Most people here in San Diego use this as a 60 pound setup and pushing… read more 80 pound work. I think the Torque series can handle all three classes with ease. Definitely worth the money!
Smooth as butter
Puts the heat on the fish and stays smooth and consistent throughout the fight. Solid reel, worth the investment.
TUNA Killer for sure!!
Bought 25 Size for Bluefin Tuna fishing.
25LND2 is the all around reel.
Have ton of drag power!!
MADE IN USA!
Sell you Talicas, torque came to town!!
The best reel money can buy. They just hold up so much better than Talicas and every other medium frame reel. Can't say enough, super smooth and they cast better than Talicas.
US Built Tough!!
Best Reel Money can buy !!!
Penn Torque 30 lever drag
Excellent reel. Worth every penny. Very smooth reel and can be fished for tuna, strip bass, and sparking.
Awesome multipurpose reel
Great reel with a narrow spool. Enough capacity for bottom fishing. Narrow enough spool for jigging. Very smooth and very little backplay Great product overall.
The Torque are designed for lighter offshore applications than what the internationals would be used for. The are smaller and therefore have lower line capacities.
<span>Based on your fishing application I would recommend a Penn BATSPJII350C68M Battalion II Slow Pitch Casting Rod. </span><a>https://www.tackledirect.com/penn-batspjii350c68m-battalion-ii-slow-pitch-casting-rod.html</a><span> This would be the heaviest
James,<p>For the Penn Torque Lever Drag reel TRQ40NLD2 - for jigging the TackleDirect Silver Hook Jigging rod TDSCJ661MH will do the trick and for trolling the TackleDirect Silver Hook Conventional rod TDSSUT601MHSB will do the trick. Please let us know
Tg,<p>Either the 30 or 40 size Penn Torque LD will be fine for a 50-80 jigging rod. The Torque LD 40 is a better choice as it has more line capacity when going after bigger fish. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.</p>
Matt,<p><br /></p><p>The 40N should hold around 450yds of 100lb braid.</p>
These reels feature a mechanical braking system as well as a multi-stop anti-reverse feature, this reel would certainly suffice for your fishing application.<p>If you were looking on a budget many of the new Penn Squall and Fathom reels feature a magnetic
