  • If you follow the channel you will know since the Penn Slammer III was released it has pretty much taken over my rod and reel arsenal almost completely. The Slammer has proved it self to be almost indestructible, lets see how the new Slammer 4 performs on some quality "trash" fish 😁

    I always enjoy watching you fish those waters, I've seen you catch many mack tuna, although they aren't popular with your family for eating they sure do fight hard, good looking fish too! Just heading into winter here, snow coming soon, looking forward to your summer fishing videos. As always, great video quality and production, thanks and take care.

    Thank You VERY Much for Your gentle touch, "Nice" is the word, I guess. And a REQUEST - an annual vid inventory update of Your Rods, Reels, and Lines - more "One to Rule", pls. Sometimes changes come quickly. As a beginner saltwater shore angler with 60-plus years as a hardcore Rocky Mountain fly fisher, I cannot get enough of Your type of content - well-thot-out & trustworthy from a gentleman. In that lite, perhaps some separate vid with Your lens deep in Your everyday tackle. Regardless, Thanks Again, Rod.

    Great content as always rod!! I love watching your adventures. Glad too see you frothing over the new penn gear as well. I was really hoping peen would have made a one piece handle this time round. I find there reels to be great but the two piece handle let’s them down. Keep up the amazing work mate!!

    I am right there with you on the Penn train. I have been fishing in Florida for more than 30 years and 90% of my reels have been Penn. I have a 30 year old International II's that still sees service on a wreck rig.

    I bought a cheap on special Penn rod, the warfare model in 3 to 6 kg and 7 foot and it's one of the best rods i've had. From day one I've increased my hook up rate no end. From catching small Tommies, garfish, whiting etc, to jigging for squid, which i cleaned up with using it the first time (7 in less than 1 hour). it's also been great on good sized salmon as well

    Would love it if you uploaded this! I’ve also seen you rig your soft plastics differently on the hook too. I think it’d be a great video. Thanks either way I love your videos.
