Saw this on another forum I frequent.

Should be available now.

Shark fishermen of the world rejoice.

Howdy!

So is it just certain models being made in America b/c I have heard numerous times Penn reels are being made in Asia now and that they are of lower quality.

I myself have a Penn Squidder and one of the older Spinfishers with green paint (713? I think). Love 'em both.

Just certain models are being made in USA...if they'd go back to making more of them in the USA...I'd go back to buying Penn again.
