Spinfisher SSV Series Reel Specs

CHECK YOUR REEL CAREFULLY!
There are five generations of the SS reels and many parts are NOT interchangable. Make sure that you take the time to identify your model number.
 
If the decals are missing, check inside the housing body, underneath the gears, it should be stamped there on most models. If not, check top or bottom of the rotor cup, or the inside of the housing cover.
 
DO NOT rely on the spools to make the id - spools are interchangeable and can be mixed up.
 
ALSO: When you go to the section to order parts, watch for individual reel design change notes.

A total of 6 seals (9 seals on the live liner models) are used to create the new Water Tight Design used in the Spinfisher V. Whether you dunk the reel in the surf, or let it ride in the spray all the way home, you don't have to worry about saltwater getting into the gearbox or drag system. A truly sealed drag system with a total of 3 HT-100 drag washers (1 on the top of the spool, 2 underneath the spool). All HT-100 washers are greased for smoothness and longevity. Extreme range, endless adjustment, and a large diameter drag knob so you can easily crank down to max drag. Eliminates the question of how much line you have left when fighting a fish. The three lines on the spool flange let you know when you have 1/3rd, 2/3rd or a full spool of line. Also if you respool often these lines five you a benchmark for backing your superlines with monofilament which will help eliminate wasted time and line. Live Liner® Drag – Are you a serious live bait fisherman? The Live Liner drag was built for fishing live bait. Simply pull the switch back and the front drag disengages and runs off the Live Liner drag. The Live Liner drag is a much lighter drag that lets your live bait swim free. When you get bit, simply start cranking the handle and the Live Liner drag disengages, the front drag engages, and your tight on your fish.

                                  

Overview:

Spinfisher SS Series - The new Spinfisher V includes several significant upgrades, making this the most advanced addition to your arsenal. (2012 Penn Website)

Spinfisher SS Series - The Penn Spinfisher is by far the most recognized spinning reel on the market. Many fishermen prefer the skirted spool style this reel can offer. Not only does the skirt prevent line from becoming entangled or fouled, but it also helps to protect the inner workings of the reel for trouble free performance. The skirt also lessens friction on the line since it completely covers the rotor housing.

Reel Info:

The SSV3500 is a new ultra-light size for the 5th Gen., ideal for freshwater fishing.

HISTORY:  The SSV replaces the SSg-SSm reels in 2013, adds a new smaller size and live liner versions as well. 9/2013 they released the SSV6500BLS bail-less model. 9/2014 they released the SSV7500LC long-cast model. In 2018, the SSV reels replaced by the new SSVI reels.
