I use both Shimano and Penn and I like both the only problem I have had with the Penns are the Graphite models. I have 2 lever drag graphite Penns and both of them look like hell and one of them cracked after I left it in the boat by mistake in direct sunlight for a few months. I have a tld 25 that is 30 years old and still works fine even after it was left in a bucket of water all winter a few years back (a friend thought it would be a good idea to leave the rod stuck in a bucket leaning against my shed)  I bought a Torium with a Trevalla jigging rod last year and it's now my favorate setup. I do have one 4/0 Okuma that was cheap and I bought a few years ago just out of curiosity. I like the reel but the rod broke on the first hard hookset.
Keep your lines tight and your tackle light!
