Quite possibly the finest spinning reels on earth, I heavily fish Lake Michigan and its rivers, I mainly fish Bass, Waleye, Pike, and Muskie, I own 2 4000's, a 5000, and a 6000, Built like if Rolex made bank vaults, smooth as silk, perfect fit and finish, you couldn't ask for a better drag system, incredible torque and power, they have added maybe 20 yards to my casts, I was running my 5000 with 50lb braid and 40lb Flurocarbon Leaders, when I hooked a 28" Waleye and a 31" Northern Pike and literally didn't even fight the fish, just ratcheted up the drag and straight reeled them in, at one point the Waleye was pulling about 14lbs of drag. The 5000 and 6000 are on the heavy side but balance out my heavier rods,

Great, used it for spinning from the shore for decent pollock on light line (10lb b/s) and I have used it on the boat to catch Ling, mackeral, big wrasse, cod and on a baited flutter jig I even caught a 30lb tope and it coped just fine paired with a Kenzaki Braid 12 - 20lb and a 30lb mono topshot with 80lb braid. It holds about enough 80lb braid to fish in 100 feet of water and still some for those unexpected catches, this is just a 4000 though so for deeper water or even bigger fish, you might want a 5 or 6000. I got this reel after reading Henry Gilbey's review and he was very positive towards this reel so I paid up and I'm not disappointed. Oh, a really fast retrieve is achieveable too.

Tough as nails! I have been snagging with this reel about 6 different weekends since the first of the year. This reel has hauled in 60 plus high fin blue cat ranging 1 lb to 25 lbs all from 50 to 100 yards out. The 25 lb was hooked right in the back part of the tail. This reel is still as tight as the day I first used it. Drag is awesome too even when I got hung up and had to break off, the drag helped to get it done. When you get a fish on or when you are slashing through the water with a 5 ounce bank sinker, the handle is a dream to reel, very smooth and sturdy. No complaints and I have purchased the smaller version 6000 too, for slip corking in my favorite cat spots. Can't wait till the flats start running!!

I bought the Clash 4000 and loved it so much I bought the 2500 one as well. Very well made spinning reel, I've caught many of freshwater and saltwater fish with itWhat I like-Very solid, made of strong material-Handle is easy on my fingers-Drag is easy to adjust-Saltwater safe-Looks beautiful. the picture isn't far off of what it actually looks likeWhat could be improved-For the price it would be awesome to get another spool or even a carrying case. The $9 Penn neoprene case would be a great free add-on for this reel. Feels a bit like being nickel and dimed in this price range to buy it separate

I have been using this pole as my main replacement. I originally had a Penn Pursuit II rod/reel combo which was used for all of my overall fishing when jigging on a boat or fishing the back bays. Recently paired this reel with 20lb braid and a Tsunami TBSS-701MH and it is such a fantastic combo. Although I have not pulled in anything bigger than some 2-3lb fluke, I am hoping this reel lives up to the hype after landing some bigger gamefish, but so far I have not been disappointed

I own over fifteen Penn reels and love them all. I must say that this one is one of my all-time favorites. The weight, drag and smoothness is extremely good. I was recommended to buy this reel (by John Skinner - Saltwater Fishing Expert) combined with a 7' Penn Battalion, Medium Action Rod, for Fluke Fishing. It's such a good combination I just got a second one of the the Reels and Rod. I use (the second setup) for Saltwater Speckled Trout.

Fantastic reel! Bought 2 of the 2500s and bought a 5000. I use the 2500s for freshwater bass fishing and inshore fishing and the 5000 for poppers and other large lures. These reels are very smooth and feel amazing. The drag has never failed me on these reels. They are extremely light! They do not wear you down after a day of fishing. Also, you can't beat the price!

I'm sporting some 20lb braid on this reel and have used it for catching some big reds, flounder, and trout on the river as well as sea bass and snapper offshore. It's the most durable 4000 Penn reel that I have owned so far and I've had a lot of them! Hopefully it keeps performing this well.

Great little reel. Feels dependable and very well constructed. Although time will tell, I have no concerns so far. Very smooth and quick. Great for the price. Using 20 lb braid and matched with a 7' Shakespeare Elite Ugly Stik, I've had a lot of fun with it spinning. Recommended.

In limited use so far, I love it. It's light, smooth and casts a mile. I replaced a Quamtum PT Inshore that was broken in an accident with this Clash and couldn't be happier with it. I"ve yet to catch a big redfish with it to test the drag but I am sure it will hold up fine.

great medium action reel so far. I bought it to replace my 15 years of saltwater use and still working penn 6500ss. very smooth drag and retrieve. casts 30lb line like the spinfisher casts 15. Haven't hooked a large fish with it yet but it seems up to the challenge...

Great especially since the bearings are sealed like the spinfishers minus the weight. This 4000 is slightly heavier than my 3000 fierce. Smoother when reeling in due to the added bearings of course. Love it best penn reel i own. Buddies want a clash too now.

This is my second Penn reel. These things are built like tanks. Nothing wrong with my first one, 5000 series(a little heavy), just wanted to add another bullet proof reel to the collection. Can't go wrong with Penn's line up of reels.

Great smooth drag, line capacity is good, never had any difficulties handling the inshore species of Cuban waters. 4ft Barracuda, large snapper, mackeral, grouper, etc... reel appears to be well built and should last me a long time.

Purchased as a gift for my husband and he absolutely LOVES this reel. He is a big fisherman and had spoken on several occasions how he needed a new reel and had his eye on this reel for a long time. Very pleased with this purchase.
