WOW!!
I have just started to use Abu rods and reels, I started off with a Black Max to learn how to use a bait caster, and I have just recently purchased two of these amazing Orra Sx reels, ( I actually bought the Orra Combo.) I can not believe how great these reels perform. Casting is smooth as silk,and the retrieve is true and steady. Abu, using your products is the best decision I have made for my fishing needs. Thank You!
I would recommend this to a friend!

abu has always made great products. they have always been on the cutting edge of technology thats what i think a lot of the complaints people are having is about. learn how to use your pitch brake found on many revos and the orra.. learning how to use it will make u love it more. something else we need to remember is every company gets a faulty reel from time to time it happens. with companys making millions of high performance reels every year some misshaps are bound to happen. i can tell you how many times i got a reel and thought it was messed up only to find out it was a problem with to much grease or oil.. i started my own reel repair buisness 9 years ago and i can tell you many people compair every reel to one they have used for years .they expect it to perform exactly the same. every reel has a breaking in peroid and you have to give it a chance toperform at the top of its game..shimano overgreases there reals so much tat they get gummed up if you dont clean them as soon as you get them.. so before we go knocking and saying negative things about one of the greatest reel companies in the world lets analyize what our problems are and ask is it us or actually the reel...

I have owned/fished with Abu Garcia reels for over 30yrs and all of them have met and or exceeded my expectations!!! Orra SX is no different than the others. I recently found a nice shoreline spot with stripers, blackfish, & snappers running through it. Most convenient setup was my Orra SX, mounted on an Ugly Stik with 30lb Spiderwire, capped with 45lb leader(2ft) and several crankbaits & deepdivers. Orra SX didn't disappoint either!!! Smooth cast, smooth drag, smooth retrieve. Fish landed! Next on my shopping list? Don't know? Do know it'll be Abu Garcia!!!

I recently purchased an Orra SX and matched it with a Veritas MH F 7' for jig fishing. I have to say these 2 match up perfectly. I couldn't be more pleased with them. From short pitches to long cast into the rocks, they have performed great. They are fast becoming my favorite Abu Garcia products... which when you consider all the Abu Garcia products I own, it says a lot for the quality. Thanks Abu Garcia!

Especially for the money, but overall, one of the best reels Abu Garcia has put out on the market. Excellent in all capacities and I fish a lot. This is certainly a reel worth having.

I have 3 of the Orra SX reels. One high speed and two of the lower speeds. They are very reliable and a great reel to own. I own 7 other Abu Garcia reels and plan to add to my stock.
