Hi,
 I have the reel you are talking about if you mean the multiplier 200 trq......used it in the florida keys and boat fishing and uptiding here in the u.k a great reel workhorse and quality build. mine is from the usa and has great build quality. im unsure if its the same in the reels made for or in Oz.

This contact I have is a penn service chap who is very good, been in the nusiness 35+ years. he is based in the u.k like me and what he doesnt know about penn reels isnt worth knowing.

If you mean the fixed spool reel by penn that has just been recently released by penn there are some reviews of in the forum already,,,,,type in penn torque in the search filed and they should come up, they were giving it a bit of a thumbs down - but were comparing it to the shimano stella etc the top end reels which are 3x the price.

3 times the price where? Penn Torque spinners in large sizes seem to be about US$ 700. A large Stella is $1000.
