Re: Penn 525 mag3
probably the most in depth review youll get at the moment

basically they are saying that it is better than the mag2 .

Re: Penn 525 mag3
You wont go wrong with the fathom.They can now be bought with a mag system.My own favourite is the size 12 which takes more than enough line.Always felt more power retrieving over the mag2s .Having said that if on a budget the mag2s can be bought for a decent price now.

chris macey is the guy who is doing most of the mag conversions on the penn fathom and such I have seen one and have to say its a tidy job.
