Lots of threads like these around on the same subject
Which penn Reels are NOT made in CHINA? - The Hull Truth - Boating and Fishing Forum

New Penn Reels China Models ? Are they having issues ? - Page 2 - The Hull Truth - Boating and Fishing Forum
Neither of those threads have anything to do with the big Internationals. I'm surprised it didn't switch to arguing about Yellowfin vs Contender.

As Mike said, they're made in the US.
