NEW! The new low-profile baitcast reels that have started a REVOlution among serious anglers everywhere. These are the reels that are getting all of the "Buzz", and have anglers across the country replacing their beloved Chronarchs and Curados with their new "favorite" fishing reel, the Revo®. Why you ask? Anglers will tell you that they are more comfortable in your hand (lower profile), every bit as smooth, have more fish fighting power due to the oversized main drive gear, hold more line, hold up outstandingly in both fresh or salt water, are far less expensive, and most of the Revo® family includes a 24 lb. drag system that is 2 to 3 times more powerful than any other reel in their class. All Revo®s are made from X-Craftic™ aluminum alloy that provides corrosion resistance unsurpassed in the fishing reel industry. Oh, and did I mention that the Revo®s are far less expensive? Don't take our word for it. Get yourself a Revo® and join the REVOlution. You too will claim it as your own "favorite" fishing reel.
The new Revo® series of low-profile baitcast reels are the finest and fastest low-profile reels that Abu Garcia® has ever designed. Heck, these are the finest low profile reels ever designed, PERIOD!
The NEW Abu Garcia® Revo® "Skeet Reese" reel. Its an Abu Garcia® Revo® low profile baitcaster with just a bit of customization by 2007 BASS Angler of the Year Skeet Reese. Just look for the yellow and black frame, Reese’s trademark colors. Reese simply can’t fish without his Revo Premier® reels but he wanted to tweak the design to fit his personal fishing needs. The result is
one of the lightest aluminum reels on the market weighing only 6.8 ounces with Angler of the Year features. The one-piece frame is built with X-Cräftic™ corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, super light and super strong. The Revo Skeet Reese uses oversized 6.4:1-gear ratio Duragear™ gears made of heavy duty and corrosion-resistant alloy. For Reese a color change was not enough and this namesake reel features eleven HPCR® (High Performance Corrosion Resistant) bearings for added smoothness during casts and retrieves. The reel’s Carbon Matrix™ Drag System incorporates the most consistent drag pull of any reel in its class. With Carbon Matrix Drag, Reese feels a solid and smooth line drag, not the erratic pull of line felt on most other drag systems.
“This reel is cool! It’s yellow and black,” said Reese. “But it’s also cool because it has more bearings than the original Revo Premier, with a special handle for more power and torque.
The eleven bearings give me better casting. I’m very flattered Abu Garcia has this Special Skeet Reese Edition.” Available in both a right- and left-hand version, the Revo Skeet Reese has a line capacity of 145 yards of 12-pound monofilament fishing line. Reese also selected a centrifugal brake system for his reel as well as the Infini II™ Spool and an extended Throw Handle with extra large grips for ease of retrieve. Salt or fresh, like all Abu Garcia® reels, they are "Built for Life".
