I've owned my STX about 2 years and fished nothing but salt water off coast of Texas. I love this reel and would rate it above my shimano curado 200E7, shimano citica, and diawa coastal. (All reels mentioned are in similar price range.) My father owns the SX, and takes it all over the bays and loves it. I've fished with everything from big live mullet to 1/4 spec rigs. Love this reel and its beginning to catch fire among guides and anglers along the Texas coast. I can't wait for the MGX.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought the revo stx a couple months ago and I can't say enough about it. I fish pretty much every day and I fish mainly for largemouth, pike, and walleye. I have about 7 baitcast reels ranging from $80- $300 and I can honestly say I have a hard time bringing any other reel out to the water now. The stx casts extremely far and handles like a dream. I hooked a big pike two days ago on Stoney Creek Lake and my stx had no problem at all showing that pike who's boss. You can tell just by holding it in your hand that this reel is quality. Great job Abu Garcia, cant wait for the new line of revos.

l loved the reel for about a month after that the bearings started to go horrible, the smoothness that it had when i bought it was gone. Sometimes after i cast it the spool doesnt spin and it makes this horrible noise, if i could return it i would
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My revo stx was whining during casting and would not cast very far. i sent it in on aTuesday and had a brand new reel on Saturday. Abu Garcia has the best customer service by far and they will take care of this for you!

This is my first bait caster and i couldn't be happier. it casts a mile and the drag set is awesome. It was very easy to learn on so if your new the the world of bait casting and looking for a great buy, don't pass this one up! Cant wait for the new revo line to come out!
