REEL INFO: International Baitcaster Series - When a powerful lever drag is overkill for your light tackle challenges, the International Baitcast family of reels fills the void. These reels are designed for some serious fishing, with machined, stainless main and pinion gears. The 975LD is the first baitcasting reel to feature Penn's renownoed International pre-set lever drag system. A 104-degree drag quadrant provides full free spool, full strike and full drag positions. This reel gives the power to do battle with inshore predators like snook and stripers, or offshore fish like school tuna, dolphin or yellowtail. (2002 Penn Catalog)
