The Slammer® IV Spinning Reel is packed with more features than ever before. Building off of our proven IPX6 sealed body and spool, we redesigned our Slammer® drag system to not only be better sealed, but also offer a wider range of usable drag, all while being bearing supported for extra smoothness. Adding our all brass CNC gear technology, 8+1 stainless steel bearing system and Hydrophobic Line Roller Bearing has made the Slammer® IV the ultimate workhorse reel. Key differences for the 2500 are listed in the feature bullets.

    So far So good

    Only about 3 trips on the saltwater and a few lake casts, But the reel has been a pleasure to use. The drag is smooth and has landed some 3-4 ft sharks on 20# braid with a 30# mono leader. Finger mullet live bait And lure casting for reds and snook on the flats with a 7 ft med. carbon rod for hours is not nearly the workout of my old setup. Saltwater exposure is the test for the future to show, but for now it’s a definite keeper. Didn’t take any other pics, don’t like to handle my phone on the boat with salty hands, son took this one., price for me was more than I have spent on past reels times 2 held back the 5th star , that and the time I’ve had the reel in use. I own 2 / 2500 and one 8500hs slammer IV reels purchased in the last few months since I recently retired and treated myself to some upgrades in tackle. Had several Penn SS series reels that have been solid for over 20 years and still going. Hopefully I can say that in the future about these Slammers

    Slammer IV used for full time guiding

    Im a full time fishing guide and need reliable strong reels for clients. The slammer 2500 size is perfect for snook, redfish, trout and any other inshore species! Highly recommended

    Our Favorite Spinning Reel - All Time

    We actually purchased several of these specifically for offshore wreck fishing. The drags on these reels are perfect and the finish is unmatched by any other manufacturer.
