Penn Mariner Standup Rods

Penn Mariner® Stand-up Rods feature a machined Aluminum reel seat, Slick Butt®, heavy-duty, braced ceramic guides (commonly referred to as Turbo Guides), and a tough Aluminum gimbal, in addition to the lightweight, solid-glass black blank. Penn Mariner ®Stand-up rods are tough, dependable, and good looking. But the obvious question is, “how tough?”

In a move not recommended for anyone, a mate on a private boat decided he would attempt the impossible and catch a longfin stand-up style, but from a seated position, with his butt resting on the rod butt. This mate laid the rod across the transom, cranked and squatted, and cranked and squatted. Sounds ridiculous, and we definitely cannot recommend that anyone try it, but the Penn Mariner® Stand-up Rod handled the task.
