Built in PENN's Philadelphia machining center — the same facility that has been crafting reels since 1932 — the International VI 50VISWS is precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished with a silver anodized coating. A stainless steel main and pinion gear train powers both speed ranges of the Quick-Shift II 2-speed system, while the Dura-Drag system delivers a smooth, hesitation-free startup even when the drag is cranked down on a big offshore fish. Lever drag, 5 bearings, and a 45 lb max drag rating make this a serious size-50 bluewater reel.
