This PENN Spinfisher VII Long Cast Spinning Reel is the 5500 model with a 4.8:1 gear ratio. IPX5 sealing protects the gearbox and drag system against water exposure, making the sealing specification a useful consideration for saltwater fishing.

HT-100 drag washers sit inside a fully sealed spool. A Full Metal Body and sideplate support alignment of the CNC Gear System under load. The Long Cast designation distinguishes this reel from the other configurations in the Spinfisher VII family.
