| After a long day of fishing
off the Florida Coast testing products, a Penn Engineer and
Penn’s CEO were engaged in conversation. For years, reel
companies mimicked Otto Henze’s original patent of using a
bridgeplate to mount the gear stud and main gear. At the time this
was innovation and creativity at its finest. However, with the
great advances in materials and machining capabilities, the
question was posed, why were companies using decade old technology
when a better, stronger, and more reliable design could be used? A
new, revolutionary concept was quickly sketched on the back of a
napkin and a new Patent was born. From this innovative and
revolutionary patent, Penn is proud to introduce a truly unique
reel design, an Integrated Side Plate. This integrated Side Plate
(ISP) serves as the basis for a new series of reels which is
introduced over the next few pages. But before its introduction, a
bit more discussion of the Integrated Side Plate design is
warranted. |
