Guy from South Africa here. I bought my PENN BATTLE 3 6000 in December last year. The bigger sizes come with the CNC cut brass gear. I have not had a smoother reel! The drag has an amazing sound. Definitely worth the money! My favourite reel!
Its onlt the B3 6000 series and up that have the wood on Daiwa and Shimano. But saying that, the superiority and value for money is outstanding .
Thanks for the video, I wanted a size comparison before I buy the reel. I want a no-nonsense reel for stalking grass carp, and this seems the right one.
Not too shabby
Great review, could not agree more. I recently bought the new Penn Battle 3DX 2500, same bass reel with a few upgrades like brass gears and only cost a few dollars more. Incredible reel, I’ve used it for inshore trout and redfish, and it works great for bass. They are a little heavier than some others in that class due to the all metal frame and brass gears, (the brass gears weigh 2x the standard battle 3 gears) but I think the little bit more weight is a small price to pay for the durability and increased strength. Packs a lot of power in a small package. Very smooth, versatile and much easier to breakdown, clean and maintain than the more expensive sealed reels. Love it.
Penn reels are absolute workhorses. I use my 3000 for salt water in the summer for Wrasse and pollock and Pike in the winter.
The thing hasn’t given me a single problem ever, I’ve had it for 2 years and not a single birds nest or anything.
If you’re proper into fishing and want a good mid to high range reel I couldn’t recommend anything better honestly.
I use a penn battle III 3000 here in the Netherlands for catching carp with a light float rod. A few years ago i bought my first Penn reel and never used another brand again. Love these reels.
They rock!
On wife's account , this is Nicholas, but I'm an environmental technician and literally just bought the battle 3 yesterday to replace emy Penn slammer until my new parts come in but the battle 3 is going in my 6'5" st. Croix medium rod and it's just going to slay here in Ohio while yak fishing
Love my Penn Battle III 3000. First fish I pulled in with it was a 26” red here in Galveston in the Gulf Coast. Little tank worth every penny.
Definitely worth the $$$
Just ordered one today. Going to put it on a okuma guide select pro 9’9”. Going to use it for pier fishing for salmon here in Michigan.
Hope you enjoy it!
I just bought a penn wrath 4000 and a penn pursuit 3 4000 I haven't got to try them yet but they are smooth and feel very well built!! Can't wait to try them!!👍👍👍
Get em!
I know this is an old video but thanks for the info. Penn Battles are on sale for the holidays. I grabbed a Battle ll & lll 3000 for a Triumph and a Star Rod. This video was helpful. Thanks!
You are very welcome
I got this very good reel I get bunch of walleye bass and pike
I paired mine up with a Fenwick HMG inshore 7’ MH
I've got the 2000 in the post and some 12lb braid to put on it. Cannot wait to try it out!!!
Another awesome review buddy! I also use the Triumphs for all my panfish! LOVE’em! That reel though! Awesome reel! I really like how thorough you are in your reviews! I believe that’s how a review should be! Awesome job man! I appreciate you! BABAAM!!
Why thank you David!!!
I still run the battle 2’s but am gonna put a few together with some battle 3’s. I use tsunami 7’6 rods, what are you guys using for inshore
Thanks for the review. I own the Penn Battle 3 3000. I use it for surf perch mostly. I found that the drag binds up and I cannot get line out. I loosened the drag up and was able to pull on the line to get the gears working. I thought this reel was sealed... your video indicated it is not. I thought all Penn's were sealed? Anyway, I hose off my reel after use in saltwater... It still works fine but I was hoping I didnt have to "baby" the reel like a fresh water reel. Thanks for the video! I may upgrade to the Spinfisher.
It’s not fully sealed. The top of the line penn’s are
OUTSTANDING I JUST BUY IT WILL FIND OUT THANKS
Badass review brother!! I love the story behind this rod with it hitting the bottom of the ocean and you gettin it back!! that is freaking sweet !!! Badass combo btw man I'm really liking the reel.. i might have to look into one just to have a high capacity spinning combo!!
I almost cried when it went overboard hahaha
@@FishingGrubbZ I would have to lol it makes me sick even thinking about it 🤣🤣atleast you was smart enough to think about using two heavy weights and a treble to drag the bottom and get it back!! You are one lucky man lol
How’s the rod today still working well?
Forgot to add im running 20lb test on mine. Nothing is gonna snap this line
Ik I’m late but where can I buy the rod?
I just picked this up today. Can you tell me what kind of line and leader you’re using ?
FYI "CNC" means Computerized Nemerical Control.
What pound braid do you use on your Penn battle 3? What brand do you use?
I’ve been using daiwa j Braid or yo zuri. I use 20lb test on my everyday striper set up to 20-25lb yo zuri fluorocarbon
Good vid sir, just bought this reel for my father in laws bday. Sub'd and liked 😉
Did you tear the reel down and clean the inside it out and regrease? Even though it has sealed bearings, its not designed to be immersed in saltwater. The battle 3 is easy to take apart and reassemble. A youtuber named tackleadvisors tore one down in 2 min and 17 seconds.
That is awesome
I was thinking about getting my daughter the 2000 for bass fishing. I need to find a reel for her medium action rod for her birthday.
That is a great idea! Super smooth reel
Can you put a power knob on this exact reel
Yeah this reel is know for being badd add like that ima see if I can get the 4000 for Christmas for San Diego bay and kelp bass
how much the maximum wight loads drag of it???????
WHAT DID YOU PAIR IT WITH AS FOR AS LINE SIZE& ROD?
I use a 7ft rod and 20lb test
Wanting to get the 3000 reel. But is 7foot better or 7'6?
Great video man. I'm interested in this exact setup for fluke fishing from the beach. Do you think there is a big difference between the Triumph 7ft Inshore vs. Triumph 7ft surf? Also, what # braid are you using?
It’s 20lb braid and I’m not sure what the biggest difference is between the two
There is no difference the triumph is better no need to use more money to get the inshore I when to my local tackle shop and I felt both rods and it’s the same as the normal triumph just get the normal one I have the normal one it is awesome
I just bought the Battle 3 DX 3000
Booom
The DX has machined brass pinion and main gear
What pound line do you use?
which braid do u use on this reel?
I use 20lb test mostly on my 3000 size reels
@@FishingGrubbZ Thank u! Great video bro! Just bought battle iii 3000!
do you know what cnc gears mean? forged? really? common man
....
what type of rod do you use?
St croix triumph
What brand of braid and # are you running for that set up?
Power pro slick
@@FishingGrubbZ Thanks man. I am also going after striper and blue. What lb test do you use?
you should do a day in the life of a mate video
Doin a video on the boat today!
Kept it real! Auto sub
Hahaha
I think 4000 and up only are cnc
All sizes have CnC gears. In the "regular" series, the main gear is CnC machined aluminum on the smaller ones, and the larger ones have brass. In the DX series, all models have brass CnC main gear, and all models of all series have brass CnC pinion gear.
@@tunanorth yea its brass that's in 4k and up
Super moulinet
Literally just copied your set up ahaha
Lol I sold this to u
You are the man!
Hahahahaha 😜 First!!!!
My dude
Quit ya bragging and get on with the review!
What does that even mean?
