Spoke to Dan Shea the local Penn rep on Sunday at a show. Seems that that reel is strictly for the New Zealand, Austrailian and Grear Britain market. The reel is not, I repeat not manufactured by Penn. It is manufactured by some OEM outfit in China or Malaysa and only has the Penn name on it for these market places.(the rep was not exactly sure which country).
