Noyb:
The slammer arrived today. Nicely made, as are most Penn reels. Instant
anti-reverse, and a totally different drag system than the SS series.
The 460 is about the size of a 6500, with a smaller spool. No lever that
allows reversing the reel...

....which is a good thing, because the only thing that used to break on those
SS's was the anti-reverse. The Slammers seem like they're quite a bit
lighter and tighter than the SS's, but they're supposedly just as easy to
rebuild. All of the benefits of the SS's with none of the negatives! Good
luck.
