- TNTyler N.Verified Reviewer7 months agoRated 3 out of 5 starsHard to get line to lay evenly
Only reason I gave it three stars instead of five is it was very hard to get the line to lay evenly I had to switch shims back and forth until it finally laid evenly
- NSNorbert S.Verified Reviewer8 months agoRated 5 out of 5 starsAuthority 8500HS
What is the actual stopping power of this spool? The data sheet says 50lb / 22,6 kg. On the spool drum and in all the photos it is 40lb / 18,1 kg. I bought one and the drum actually says 40lb / 18,1 kg. I have two 4500s and a 7500 with the correct specs.
- CBCaptain Billy C.1 year agoRated 5 out of 5 starsPutting the Authority to the test
Exceptional reel! I fish approximately 200 days a year with customers exclusively in salt water. From casting lures to live bait Penn Authority is built to take a beating. Bull Redfish will test the limits of any reel especially if you do it day in day out. The drag on the Authority is super smooth and my customers speak highly of them.

It was a gift for someone. They loved it
- JPJavier P.Verified Buyer1 month agoRated 5 out of 5 starsExcellent Reel
Excellent reel. Very well thought out and easy to maintain. Peen knocked this one out of the park.
