Personalization of the PENN International reels begins with 7 custom-tailored colors including tournament pink, American blue, American red, solid black, gun smoke, International silver and International gold. Anglers can choose these colors to decorate their entire reel or mix it up by adding a second custom color to the reel.

All PENN International V Series Big Game reels consist of four separate parts consisting of the sideplates, frame, drag lever knob, and spool that can be anodized different colors to for any angler's own unique look. Finally, anglers now have the option to customize PENN International reels to match any boat style.

Color coordination is not the only option an angler may choose. Now each PENN International reel may be engraved to truly tailor the reel. As a result PENN is proud to offer four popular gamefish and the American flag as custom engraving options. Plus the option is available to add a boat name or any other text to the sideplate in gold or black ink. Each engraving will be sized proportionally for the left sideplate depending on the model purchased.
