Penn Fathom 25 has been my daily driver for a while now. Fishing both sport boats as well as from kayak. It’s a solid reel with plenty of line capacity and plenty of drag. Also super smooth and free spool is awesome as well. Spool it with 65 lb braid and you are good to go. It’s light enough that you can fish with it all day, especially if paired with graphite/composite rod.
While most people prefer star drag reels for jigging, I have been using my Lexa 400HD and I really like the fact that I don’t need to get my hand of the handle to go from free spool to set it to gear. Especially when fishing flat falls/butterfly jigs or colt snipers.
Torium is really good reel as well, especially for the money.
