$100 Abu Garcia Max Pro Is The BEST Walmart Bastcaster

[@All_the_Bassman]

Budget fisherman myself and just recently got into baitcasters. You convinced me to go with the max pro as my next combo 👍🏼

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Great to hear!

[@mattbigchiefbradley1739]

@@All_the_Bassman out the door with the line on the real and everything 225 bucks

[@johnbaker4847]

Now, I love the Abu Garcia line-up. They are quality at an affordable price. Thank you Abu-G! 🎣👍😸😝😊🎣

I recently got back into fishing last September. Im 37 years old and I live in Southeast Louisiana so i fished a lot when i was a kid and into my early 20's but i just stopped and never started again until recently. I bought a cheap Wal-Mart spinning combo for 25 bucks, fished with that for a month or two and then decided I wanted a baitcasting combo. I did some research and the Abu-Garcia Max Pro was consistently in the top 3 of best budget baitcasting combo lists so, i went with it and Im glad i did. Its great. I now have 6 different combos but the Abu-Garcia was my first and only combo I have now that was bought and not built by me. I fish at least 2 days a week so i use my gear often and they all have held up just fine.

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Good to hear man. Thank you for your support! Also, just picked up the Max Pro combo in the latest video!

[@seanb1321]

LOL "Not even a ch**trail...not sure I can say that on KZbin..."I love that and have thought the same. Usually occurs after a big storm

[@gilbertperez2135]

I have that exact real have it paired with a 7’ ft MH Diawa Latina with 20lb power pro braid yellow 15lb leader line love it

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Sounds like a sweet setup to me!

[@fdeangelq]

The Max Z is a great combo!! I got mine about 8 years ago pair it with 15lbs hybrid line and still running strong!!!

[@tophertoast1788]

Bought this off of your recommendation, I love this reel. Thank you!

[@HeranicWoW]

They don’t do tap or Apple Pay because they want to drive customers to get the Walmart app and use Walmart pay. Ultimately the goal is get people to sign up for Walmart+. That’s actually a metric stores have to meet for associates. (I’m the team lead over sporting goods and a few other departments for my store so I can answer pretty much any question you might have)

[@Thebassguru84]

I put this reel right up there with my Diawa tatula sv tw. Excellent reel

[@DrewBert92]

I was legit at Walmart last night and saw this. It was 81 bucks I had to buy it. Can't wait to use it next month.

[@dolloff33]

It's a great reel but I might argue that the Lew's Reactor is just as good, or possibly better. Love the content man!

[@noobpyrotech9991]

I was looking at the reactor rod…very light.

[@gavinsixnine]

Do you still stand by that? I'm deciding between the reactor or max pro. There's so many reviews on the max pro but not alot on the reactor.

[@Wild-bills]

I just bought the newer black max yesterday for my birthday. It’s my second abu baitcaster now. Just a great and easy to use reel!! Thanks for all the videos and info!!😊

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Happy Birthday man 🎉🎉 Hope it treats you well!

[@Wild-bills]

@@LarryMeltonJr Thank you!!! I know it will!!

[@MrChantheman84]

Love the videos bro keep em coming. 3 hrs to hook up to the first fish is dedication for real. I use scupper plugs on my yak to keep my feet dry, I think you should try some on yours.

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Thankya man! Gotta stay after it!

[@jasonlopez4855]

They still don't have this ABU Garcia Max pro no where in my state. Time to order it I guess don't like to order because I want to pick out my own rod in my hand and feel. Got the Max Z and Sooper Happy one baitcaster one size 10 one in size 40 reel spinning reels. You said that they last two years 🤔 is that it better I need a new one. 7.1-1 was the last number for on it.

[@ConTheDon187]

I went with their spinning max pro because there's also a lot of good reviews on them. I think the Max sxt i'll pick up next

[@TK_Fishing]

Great vid. Walmart has the vengeance combo on sale. You should do a budget setup like the Max Z and another Walmart rod.

[@F1REMAN317]

Can you do a video on how to set up a bait caster. I am wanting to buy one but not sure how to set it up initially. Thanks

[@LarryMeltonJr]

yessir i’m doing one in december!

[@TheMoreYouMOfishing]

My boy 💪🏾💯 oh and that background music 🔥

[@LarryMeltonJr]

thankya thankya

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Just curious… How many of y’all started off with a black max combos

[@tnbassmaster]

i started with one and i have a revo sx with veritas tournament edition rod and love it but there is still a place in my heart for the black max!

[@m0rtal31]

100%

[@bgriffin511]

Did not start with it, but now I have 2. Zero complaints.

[@BeaHendricks]

I am new to fishing. How long of a line I need to fish in the bay off a short bridge (apx 15 feet high).

[@cosdavid82]

Hello Pro max vs Revo X which buy please? I know you have test a lot of abu garcia reels so need some help please... 😉

[@mitchellwest174]

Love your videos keep up the great work

[@andrewwilson1302]

Just picked up my first bait caster combo from academy and it came with the max pro on it. Did no prior research so this is really reassuring 😂😂

[@tylercrank7729]

Wild they got them reels sitting on shelves like that. Those jokers gettin swiped left and right smh.

[@Dbl_OG_13]

Im trying to get some opinions on the Max pro combo vs the Revo SX vendetta combo? One will be my next purchase. I'd just like to hear from actual anglers which they prefer

[@craigweaver6003]

I have been looking at getting a new baitcaster and I have two shimanos but I have been leaning to the abu because of your videos. I am between the jordan lee or the max pro just can't make up my mind

[@fishinisraelite6438]

[@dorgs4843]

Great video, I have a question, is the thumb bar a little bit wiggly when its pushed down? I noticed mine is able to be bended downwards a bit

[@njordgaming3527]

for me price wise that bass pro has now the revo sx with vendetta rod is good for price

[@alecthompson8403]

I have the max z and pro at my local Walmart and I would love to see a vid on the max z

Great content. I just bought that same setup (maxpro and Jordan Lee) 2 weeks ago. Love it.

What was the rod model?

[@JBUfishing]

Yo do u stop ur spool when u use it

[@lucasrodriguesbarcellos400]

you tried the max z already? if I going to buy it my first one you recommend the max z or the black max?

[@Narrahd]

I can remove the tension nob and my lure still won't fall any faster! Am I doing something wrong?

[@ssei2001]

I also have the MaxPro it's a very nice reel, but my Silver Max is sweet as well.

[@bamadondon0495]

The Max Z will surprise you.. I went back and got one just for the hell of it and now it's my light flipping reel

[@LarryMeltonJr]

Sweet dude! I’m getting it this week!!

[@tdclips1213]

want to buy this rod, but my main concern is traveling with it without getting damaged because it’s so long. Do you have any solutions?

[@chrisnewberry4646]

I just bought a Abu-Garcia Gen Ike ez cast baitcast combo two days ago for myself, I have fished with it but haven't caught anything yet.

[@LarryMeltonJr]

How do you like it?

[@chrisnewberry4646]

@@LarryMeltonJr I really like it. They should have made the fishing pole 7 ft instead of 6 ft though.

[@torynix2028]

I've got the max z. Pretty solid reel. Definitely better then the vengeance to me.

[@dubs1725]

🤣bought a cheap Amazon bait caster got used to it so I copped this one had to check it out

I just got the left handed version of the Max Z and it’s nice(I have two black max’s too)!
