The PENN Fierce IV 3000 is one of the best value saltwater reels in the PENN range and it’s built tough for New Zealand conditions. With a solid full metal body, graphite rotor, and a sealed stainless steel bearing system, this reel is designed to take on hard-fighting snapper, kahawai, and more. Add in PENN’s tried-and-true HT-100 carbon fibre drag and you’ve got a smooth, reliable reel that punches well above its weight.
The PENN Squadron II Soft Bait Spinning Rod
Matched perfectly to the Fierce IV 3000, the PENN Squadron II 7'2" Soft Bait Rod is a great all-rounder for inshore fishing around New Zealand. Whether you're flicking soft baits in the harbour or working the shallows for snapper, the lightweight graphite composite blank gives you a responsive feel with a forgiving parabolic action. One-piece stainless steel Dura-Guides and a comfortable cork grip make this rod a reliable choice for Kiwi fishos.
