I'm considering having a reel or a spool loaded with a sinking tip
and ready to fish places like Penns Creek. I ask because I know that
getting down deep with a good streamer or bugger can bring out the big
ones.

So, the question is, is having a reel/spool loaded with a sinking tip
worth the hassle for places like Penns? Or maybe I should have one
for lakes and deeper water and Penns.

Is it worth the hassle or can I "get down" with a floating line in
"Penns-like-situations" and expect a good success rate.
Thanks in advance for your advice.

I don't think sink tip lines are worth the hassle for most rivers and
streams. I use airflo poly leaders for those rare situations where i think i
need a sinking tip . You can buy a whole set for the price of a fly line.
