Thrasher Shark on Revo!!!!!!!!!
These reels fish so well in freshwater that I had to find a way to fish them in saltwater!!! In freshwater the reels are great!!! You can cast small lures a country mile!!! Smooth as silk retrieve. I love these reels so much that I had to find a way to incorporate this into my saltwater arsenal and I did. The Revo Toro 60 HS. I landed a 5.5 foot Thrasher Shark on this reel after a 40 minute fight.
Abu Garcia commitment to innovation, attention to detail, and quality is the reason that I have replaced all other brand products.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The STX performs as good or better than any reel out there (I've tried most). Casts small lures a mile. Smooth operation. Only problem I have is the reel is built a little small for my hand. However this does keep weight down so it is a small trade off!

this is by far the best reel i have ever used. I have 6 round reels(all abu garcia) the oldest is over 30 years old still going strong. decided to switch to the low profile and glad I did lighter, casts farther,and more comfortable after buying my first one I went back and bought 3 more finally retired the old round reels, these are definitly the real deal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have never owned a better baitcast reel in my life. I bought 2 STX's last year as a result of my own 3 of the REVO S's. This reel is unbelievably easy to use. My biggest problem that I ever had with baitcast reels was the backlash. I don't have that issue anymore and I don't care how hard the wind blows in my face, the STX works great. It fits the hand well. The low profile reel makes it easy to handle. They are built to last. Nothing chincy on this reel. It is easy disassemble to clean and just as easy to put back together. I won't ever own a different reel than the Revo. Thank you Abu Garcia !!
