Abu-Garcia came out with a new reel line called Revo
two years ago. I purchased a Revo-STX reel about two years ago. The
Revo-STX is a high speed, low profile reel. It takes in a whopping
31 inches of line with each full turn of the reel handle. The reel
has a Carbon Matrix Drag system, which I have tested with big bass
and some huge rough fish with no drag failures. The reel features a
Duragear oversized bass main gear for maximum cranking power and aluminum
components for light weight and durability. I have thrown baits ranging
from 1/16 oz to 1&1/2 oz and the reel has handled the baits and
conditions great due to the Linear Magnetic Brake system (available
on the SX, STX and Premier models). The Revo reels come in several
different models: S, SX, STX, Inshore and Premier. Also, the NEW Revo
Premier is the newest model to the Revo reel line. The Revo Premier
has the same size and shape as the other Revo models, but only weights
6.3 oz. The Revo-S model starts at $109.99, and the Revo Premerie model
tops out at $259.99.
I have been extremely pleased with how this reel has held up and performed.
The reel is just as smooth today as it was the first day out of the
box. The next time you are in your local tackle store ask to see one
of the Revo models. I think that you can find one of the Revo models
will catch your fishing needs.
