Pros – This reel has one of the main features anglers search for in a reel, which is the infinite anti-reverse system. It also has 6 bearings to provide you with the ultimate experience in smooth performance. Other features that make this reel stand out are the metal housing, HT 100 drag washer and techno balanced rotor. The Penn Slammer 460 reel has no problem casting long distances and offers a 4.6 to 1 gear ratio for retrievals.
Cons – The main complaint about the Penn Slammer 460 is that this reel is very heavy. It weighs about 19 ounces. After several hours of use you will begin to notice the weight and it will be something that you will need time to get use to. It may even be too heavy for many anglers to use comfortably.
