I've just recently received the new generation revo as a gift about two months ago. I'm fairly new to the baitcasting scene but sometimes when I'm done casting my lure, I have to turn turn the handle 2-3 revolutions in order to snap the thumb bar plate back up. Is that normal?
I've tried other baitcasters before and I've never had this problem until now. I was hoping on catching something before Winter but I guess it'll have to wait.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This reel can be used for any situation. I have flipped, pitched, cast and even trolled with it. Pulled in some great bass and it is still holding strong. I do not have a complaint about this reel. I have never really been a baitcast fan untill this reel, but now have told the wife that i'm going to get the MGX just to see how much better it can get. Have collected 4 of these and will be getting more as I sale the rest of my shimano and daiwa reels off. Abu Garcia makes great products with prices to match. Thanks and keep it up.

I've had the revo sx gen 3 since it has came out and have been fishing it in the Chesapeake Bay and it has handled 30 inch stripers very well! Great drag system, light weight and very smooth! I just ordered 2 more! I'm pairing them with Powell max rods!
