ksong is on a distinguished road
Penn Torgue 200 is a like a tank. I really enjoyed to catch big yellowtail or hapuka(wreckfish) on this tiny reel on the NZ trip.
However, I need some clarifications from Penn.
I could get only 20 - 22 lbs max drag from my Torgue 200 while Penn claims the max drag of the reel is 32 lbs.
And also they claim the weights of Penn 300 and 200 are 29 oz and 20 oz, respectively. But the weight of my Torgue 200 is whopping 28 - 29 oz and I got the report that the weight of Torgue 300 is 37 oz !
I hope they are pure mistakes.
