Otto Henze Otto Henze left Ocean City Reels and started his own fishing reel company in 1932, called Penn Fishing Tackle Manufacturing Company.

Sea warriors need look no further than our line of Spinning, Conventional and Low Profile Baitcast Reels: Our corrosion-resistant protection makes our reels the most popular on the market, and our smooth gear system makes it the most recommended by expert anglers.

Saltwater rods have guides and reel seats made of corrosion-resistant materials such as titanium, carbon, or stainless steel. Since corrosion isn't as much of an issue in freshwater, freshwater rod components are made of materials like aluminum oxide.

Because of the long throw distance required & the larger species that you'll be targeting, saltwater lines are heavier. Freshwater fly lines, like saltwater fly lines, should be matched to the rod weight being thrown. These lines would be intrinsically smaller because of the reduced rod size, flies, & leader.

In 1942, Penn Reels moved to a new manufacturing facility on West Hunting Park Avenue in Philadelphia, its current location.
