*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

I have the same exact reel, it's my favorite. I'm saving up to buy another one. Abu Garcia round baitcasters are the best. Keep them cleaned and oiled and they last for a long, long time. I didn't realize spider wire is made in USA. I been running power pro, not sure where it's made, but I like buying domestic too.
@OnDayFiveFishing8 жыл бұрын
Yes buying domestic is certainly a good thing to do. I need to pay more attention to that as well.

Just an added comment, I was using it today with 15lb mono and casting 5” stick baits with ease. Only had two fish of a couple of pounds each but it was a joy to use.

That sounds like a good time.
@robbofoss5 жыл бұрын
Just bought one today and can confirm they are still made in Sweden. The Chinese ABU’s are ok for freshwater, but you need the Swedish version for saltwater. The lighter spool means casting lighter baits is easier, the drag is smooth, the retrieve is fast enough. I’ll let you know if it lets me down.

I bought the exact same reel, but the left-hand crank version 6601. OK, so I am going to frank about this reel, let's just say it isn't great. For me, there are 2 issues: 1)the spool flexes under load and makes a noise and 2) the gears are too small, at 6.3:1 I didn't expect it to strain when I am retrieving my live prawn when the bait is helicoptering. I have owned other Abus before such as an Ultracast UC6501C and that reel didn't have these problems. Overall, I can live with the flexing spool, but the lack of cranking power is just a bit disappointing. But, at such a low price point, perhaps I shouldn't complain too much. Other than that, I think I am done with the Abassadeurs, may be I will try some of the Revos in future.

I see all these Abu videos on youtube and i don't get it. Every piece on these reels is stamped, there's lateral vibration on the handle/knobs, backbplay on the handle, only 3BB etc. It feels damn cheap in your hands, the reel isn't tightly build at all. Daiwa offerings are so much better but people are always coming back with their OG abu's.

They are mechanically simple, that means maintenance is simple. You can take them apart very easily. Replacement parts are very easily sourced. Can be upgraded with aftermarket parts. Proven design.
