Hello Fishing Buddies! Today, we'll be doing an unboxing of the Penn Rival 6000 Long Cast Reel.
(Intro)
Here I have the Penn Rival 6000 Long Cast Reel in its unopened box.
Outside the box, it mentions the reel's specs in various languages.
Let's go ahead and open it up.
We are greeted by the reel itself, but let's save that for later.
Inside we get spare washers - which not all fixed spool comes with. An
exploded parts list in case you will need parts for spares or repairs.
A general fixed spool manual.
And finally, we get the spare spool.
Going to the reel itself. It looks classy in matte black with metallic blue trimmings.
The brakes operations are clearly labeled.
The clicker is nice and loud enough.
And the mechanism is smooth- which is as expected for a new reel.
The spare spool has the same dimensions with the main spool - which is a tapered
shallow spool that's supposed to be able to hold 300m of 0.20mm diameter line or 180 yards
of 10 lbs monofilament - as per the text on the spool.
Let's put some line in. We're using Berkley ProSpec 0.38mm
Saltwater Monofilament which is advertised to have a 22.1 lb break test.
I was able to get 100 metres of line and then I topped it off with
Tronixpro's Xenon Tapered Shockleader. Now all that's left is to test it out.
