Went to check them out at OE this week, but the selection sucked.


That would be the Revo MGX. You'd have to cough up another Benjamin for that one. It looks like a real sweet reel if you do a righty crank. If not, you would have to wait until Abu switches the gear box to the other side of their reel. It'll hold 130yrds of 10# so that is enough line. If a fish is that far down stream from you, you had better put on your hiking boots and get down there and get even with him or he's gone.

That Inshore model that BFD was testing might work also, but it is a righty crank too.

It looks like Abu is trying to make a move and get along side Shimano and Daiwa in the low profile market but they are going to have to switch some gear boxes to the left side to win many of us over.

When they do, I may have to go to town and break out some of my old moldy money that ain't seen the light of day for a decade and buy a new reel. When they switch that MGX over to the left side, it just might be my huckleberry.
