A Fantastic Combo For Fishing: The Penn Pursuit II Review

For most kids growing up they dream about becoming a pilot, a schoolteacher, a singer, a movie star, or a professional athlete. But when I was a kid all I thought about was how much I wanted to be a fisherman.

My uncle, who I was very close to, was a professional fisherman, and when I was eight years old, my father and him agreed that I could go out on the ocean with him. That day changed my life. I was in awe the whole time while I watched him catch fish and reel them in.

I was astounded to see the size of some of these fish. I had never seen a Tuna so big, and I had no idea how much went into catching even one fish. I was instantly hooked and I proudly wrote a paper in Grade 5 explaining that my dream was to become a fisherman.

Well, I am very happy to say that that dream came true, and I became my Uncle’s apprentice and soon after began a fishing boat of my own. I have been professionally fishing for over 10 years now and enjoy every moment of it.

What gets me the most excited is when I see people who have never fished before learn to love it. So I have taken it upon myself to research the various rods on the market today so that you can learn what ones to buy and what ones to stay away from. It is my hope that I will save you money and push you towards a brand that will catch you the most fish possible.

One of the fishing rods on the market today is the Penn Pursuit II 6000 Fishing Rod. It has been made to offer you the best experience while you are out on your boat fishing.

Verdict:                     

Fishing rods can definitely be a large financial investment as can range over $1000 depending on the brand you get. However, if you find a good one, it can save you a lot of money in the long run and also will maximize the amount of fish you catch.

I always recommend for anyone buying a fishing rod, or any outdoors equipment for that matter, to always go to a store in person to hold it for yourself. Fishing rods do come down to personal preference as a lot of them depend on your size.

I am a 5’8” male and something that may work perfectly for me, will not work perfectly for you if you are a lot taller or shorter than me. This is why I believe and tell people to always go to the store and hold the fishing rods I am talking about. If you really do enjoy it and love the feel of it, then by all means make the purchase! You will be really glad you did!

That being said, I think the Penn Pursuit II 6000 Fishing Rod is a really fantastic fishing rod. It is made of some of the finest material and feels great in my hands. Since it is also lightweight, it is not a burden to carry it around on a boat and I find it never gets in the way.

Also, the grip on it is great on your hands and is comfortable to hold. I recommend this rod for someone with a bit of experience as it is not the easiest rod to jump into if you have never fished before!
