Shore Division

PENN Authority 5500 Reel

MSRP $549.95

PENN’s flagship Authority spinning reel in the big 5500 size, the top of the line for surfcasters. A full metal body, CNC Gear Technology, and the IPX8-sealed Dura-Drag system give you the muscle and the sealing to fight big fall-run bass and shrug off the salt.

Kayak Division

PENN Fathom LP 500

MSRP $499.95

PENN’s low-profile Fathom is a compact conventional reel with a serious backbone, built for nearshore and inshore work. The all-metal frame and 25 pounds of max drag give a kayak angler the muscle to turn a big striper, in a reel small enough to palm all day.

Youth Division

YETI Cayo 25L Backpack

MSRP $250

A 25-liter everyday backpack built to shrug off sand, saltwater, and getting tossed in the truck bed. Weatherproof zippers and a padded laptop sleeve mean it pulls double duty from the beach to school to wherever a young angler’s day takes them.
