Penn SQLII30LWLH Squall II Level Wind Reel LH

The PENN® SQLII30LWLH Squall® II Level Wind Reel brings the perfect balance of strength, reliability, and ease of maintenance in a left-hand retrieve configuration. Designed for anglers who demand performance and simplicity, the Squall® II Level Wind builds on the success of the original model with updated technology, including PENN's Fast Gear Access Sideplate, which allows for easy internal servicing without removing the entire reel from the rod. Whether you're trolling offshore, bottom fishing, or battling trophy catfish in freshwater, this reel delivers smooth, powerful performance under pressure.

Constructed with a lightweight yet rugged graphite frame and sideplates, the Squall® II houses a forged and machined aluminum spool built to handle heavy loads. Inside, a marine-grade bronze alloy main gear and stainless steel pinion gear combine for unmatched durability and cranking power. The 3+1 shielded stainless steel ball bearing system ensures smooth operation, while the HT-100™ carbon fiber drag washers offer long-lasting drag power that stays smooth across the entire range. A 4.9:1 gear ratio paired with an 89 cm (35 in) retrieve rate gives anglers the control and torque needed for deep water applications.

The Squall® II Level Wind reel also features Line Capacity Rings to easily monitor remaining line, and an Instant Anti-Reverse bearing for rock-solid hooksets. Designed with braid in mind, but capable of handling heavy monofilament, the SQLII30LWLH gives anglers flexibility in tackle choice. With its tough construction and user-friendly design, this reel is a smart pick for anglers targeting everything from large saltwater bottom dwellers to freshwater monsters.
