Product Information

Penn International VI 16 VISXS Right Hand Silver Conventional Reel

 

The Mid-Range Offshore Dominator: Precision, Power, and American Heritage

The PENN International® VI 16 VISXS (Silver) represents the sweet spot in offshore conventional fishing, offering the perfect balance of line capacity, drag power, and manageable size. Built with pride in PENN’s historic Philadelphia facility using high-strength, lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum, this reel carries on a legacy of tournament-winning performance that began in 1932.

The 16 VISXS is a versatile and potent tool, ideal for anglers targeting serious offshore game like medium-sized Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna, larger Wahoo, and hard-fighting Amberjack. Its combination of speed for quickly clearing lines and immense low-gear torque for the sustained vertical battle makes it an essential piece of equipment for any serious boat.

 

Key Features & Technology

 

Feature Description
Construction Precision machined from aircraft-grade aluminum billet. Machined and anodized aluminum body and sideplates with the classic Silver finish ensure maximum corrosion resistance and strength.
Gear System Quick-Shift II™ 2-Speed System for instant transition between the high-speed retrieve and the power-cranking low gear. Features the largest fully machined stainless steel main and pinion gears in its class for unstoppable durability and power.
Drag System Sealed Dura-Drag™ System provides exceptional smoothness and eliminates drag hesitation (“stickiness”), even under the extreme pressure of max drag settings.
Customized Strike Versa-Strike Adjustable Strike Stop—an innovative, industry-first feature allowing the angler to precisely set and customize the strike position to match specific fishing styles or line classes.
Anti-Reverse Ultra-Dependable Double-dog Ratchet Anti-Reverse to eliminate handle back-play, ensuring solid hooksets and reliability under immense load.
Line Management Line Capacity Rings provide a clear, instant visual guide to the amount of line remaining on the spool.
Origin Engineered and Made in the USA of domestic and imported components.
