REEL INFO: Spinfisher SS Series – The 850SS, 750SS and 650SS spinning reels are designed for heavy use: surf casting and boat fishing for bluefish and big channel bass, sailfish, cobia and other tough gamefish. The Penn SS drag system is built into the spool and features the revolutionary HT100™ drag washers for unbeatable all-around performance. (1992 Penn Catalog)
Spinfisher SS Series – The Penn Spinfisher is by far the most recognized spinning reel on the market. Many fishermen prefer the skirted spool style this reel can offer. Not only does the skirt prevent line from becoming entangled or fouled, but it also helps to protect the inner workings of the reel for trouble free performance. The skirt also lessens friction on the line since it completely covers the rotor housing. The 420SS and 430SS Spinfisher models were ideal for a variety of ultralight and light applications: trout, crappie, bluegill and similar species.(Spinfisher SS manual)
HISTORY: The 7500SS replaced the 750SS in 1992, and so on for the entire series. In 2005 the 00SS were replaced by models from the SSg and SSm series.
