Penn Fathom II 10XN 2 Speed Lever Drag Reel

Description

Penn Fathom II 10XN 2-Speed Lever Drag Reel (T-Handle)

The Penn Fathom II Lever Drag series is a highly capable line of conventional reels, and the $10 XN$ model is specifically designed for jigging and other boat fishing applications where a compact, narrow reel with high line capacity and extreme power is required. The “2-Speed” feature allows the angler to switch between a high-speed retrieve for quick line pick-up and a powerful low gear for cranking in large, hard-fighting fish. The T-handle provides maximum grip and leverage during intense battles.

Key Product Description

The Fathom II is an upgrade to a class-leading reel, featuring an ultra-compact design achieved by integrating the palm side plate and frame for increased strength and a better feel in hand. Its core components are built for maximum durability and brute strength, making it a favorite for inshore, nearshore, and light offshore jigging and bottom fishing.

Full Metal Body and Sideplate: Provides uncompromising rigidity, keeping the stainless steel gears perfectly aligned under heavy loads.
Quick-Shift II™ 2-Speed System: Allows for instant shifting between the high-speed gear (for retrieval) and the low-speed gear (for power).
Dura-Drag™ System: This drag system virtually eliminates hesitation, even under extreme drag settings, ensuring smooth performance throughout the fight.
Pull-To-Turn Preset Knob: This feature prevents accidental changes to the drag setting during the heat of a fight, allowing the angler to truly set it and forget it.
Narrow Frame (“XN”): The “XN” designation indicates a narrow spool design, which aids in line management, reduces the reel’s overall weight, and makes it more comfortable to palm and use for vertical jigging.
Forged and Machined Aluminum Spool: Built for durability and performance.
T-Handle/Power Handle: Equipped with a power handle featuring a large ergonomic knob (often a T-style or soft-touch knob, depending on the specific product variant) to maximize cranking power and comfort.
