5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser05/09/2023Great peir and surf combos.I purchased 2 of the 7 foot medium rods with the 4000 reel. They aren't as nice as the battle combos. But for everyday peir and light surf fishing these are perfect. They are made well and seam like they will last. And for the money I don't think you can go wrong. I hooked into what I can only assume was a very large skate or ray on the peir and it ran almost the entire spool out. But the drag and rod handled it very well. Never missed a beat. I'm happy with the quality of these combos for the price point. Would purchase again.SLeBeau

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser03/02/2023Great line for the budget mindedGreat affordable setup. I fish a minimum of four days a week. These things hold up and take a licking. I'd say best bang for your buck the pursuit lineup can't go wrong for a combo around 60 bucks I have the 4000 and 6000 setups. All saltwater use weekly and daily use.David

3.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser11/20/2022Poor shipping.First shipment of 2 rods - 1 was A.O.K., the other had rod tip broken off. Got replacement in 4 days - yea! Oops - replacement rod was shipped with one eye offset about 30 radially degrees from the others. Was going to return it, but only option was refund. I threaded it up and it doesn't alter the line path. Now to see how it reacts with a fish on.John

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser10/16/2022ShoreFishermanPRI've had this combo for some time now and I can't say anything bad about it. Has a great drag the ratio is very high, when reeling in it's 2 times much faster than my Shimano 4500 and my Shun Tong 6000. This Penn Pursuit III has everything I need when fishing off the rocky shores, on the beach or on a boat off shore fishing. I purchased this combo on April 25, 2022 and will buy it again if I get a chance. A good pice of fishing gear.Juan

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser05/05/2021Awesome saltwater combo!I bought my pursuit 2 combos before we went on vaca last year. We take a trip down to the outer banks every year so a solid saltwater setup was necessary. This has exceeded my expectations. I love it. The reel is so smooth an the drag system is amazing. Rod is nice an strong an can handle throwing 5oz pyramids with no problem. Have always loved Penn products an will continue to use them. Thanks again Penn.TightLinesOBX

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser09/09/2020Great combo, very smoothSmooth reel, great action rod, love this combo. I use it for cat fishing. Even though it's made in China it's quite nice. I do miss the old Penn reels made in Pennsylvania. I hope that some day in the future we can see some reels made in good ol PA.Porcupinepie

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser07/22/2019Pursuit III 3000 perfect freshwater rod and reel.Wanted a spinning reel for finesse fishing. Strike King jigs, Ned rigs, Drop shots and light Texas rigs. Have 2 saltwater Spinfishers and love them. Never considered anything but a Penn. Can't beat the price and the quality is great. Fished with it 2 times and have caught 4 nice sized Bass a Bluegill and a Sunfish. Lost 2 Bass that threw the hook. If you want a nice freshwater spinning reel for finesse Bass fishing that doesn't break the bank. Check out the Pursuit III.mlhart23
