Penn Captiva Spinning Reel Series
Penn Captiva Spinning Reels this particular penn reel series seems to have a few bad eggs the reports I have seen say that the handle and or the bail are the problems the 1st breaks under extreme pressure or when fighting a big fish that would be a real bummer, the 2nd could happen when just flipping it open.
Other problem with this penn captiva reel is that the paint used chips away fairly fast and still more problems with this penn reel series prevail but most are after years of heavy usage.
Those that had problems in the 1st year were able to send back their reels to Penn Mfg. Co. (215-229-9415) and most opted for a new reel rather then getting their money back their reasoning was that they really liked the way it cast, felt and the fast service Penn gave them.
Still many other people swear by it and they would recommend this penn captiva spinning reel series and have bought more then one. The Penn Captiva Spinning Reel series casts easy is light and very durable.
