Get Lit Earns Another Sailfish Tournament Win

Captain Quinton Dieterle of Get Lit and the rest of the crew walked away winners this past weekend at the Sailfish Pro Series K-Rock Classic. The team caught and released 30 sailfish over the two-day tournament, using Penn Custom 16 VS Reels and 20-pound Stren Stamina tipped with Stren Tinted Fluorocarbon leaders. With the victory, Get Lit earned a nice payout totaling $52,000.

“I cannot say this enough. Penn reels and Stren line are the ultimate combo when it comes to big water fishing,” said Dieterle. “The quality and durability in each product is worth its weight in gold. As long as Get Lit continues to use Penn and Stren we will be in the hunt every single tournament.”

Finishing in a close second place was the Freedom, led by Penn pro staffer Ray Rosher. Freedom caught and released 20 sailfish during the two-day event.

Braided line ready, the Penn International series gives the saltwater angler Dura-Drag washer that virtually eliminate hesitation, even under the strain that braided lines put on a reel. Equipped with a patented Quick Shift two-speed system, the Penn International V easily shifts into high or low gear. Four ball bearings give the angler the smoothest performance in saltwater. Penn International Reels are available in five sizes – 16VS, 30VSW, 50VSW, 70 VS and 80 VSW – to accommodate any saltwater fish.

Stren Tinted Fluorocarbon leaders have a unique tinted finish that blocks any shine or light piping.
