One thing about Abu is they seem to be able to get their baitcasters to sit way lower in the reel seat than the other companies. Other than that though, I think they’ve been behind the game for many years.

I have the current zenon x, really enjoyed it. Smooth, light, low profile and large knobs

I think companies should be investing more in 1 reel that can go from like a 70 MGl spool to a bfs spool just by switching out the spool and maybe some ball bearing or magnets. I think that would be game changing and lead BFS into a new direction instead of the same recycled reels every yr

Great idea. But will never happen. That would sharply limit sales of reels which they won’t do.

It’s a fishing reel. I think they are running out of ideas 😂

@officialWWM never. The Japanese can create some crazy stuff. Im sure there r companies making reels with some kind forward facing sonar compatibility or with it on the reel. They have self winding reels. DAIWA and Shimano could do a collab a DC with a t-wing guide.

companies are in the business of selling reels, not spools

I have the revo 5 RKT, 2 STX, SX RTK and an SX and have nothing bad to say about them have hauled in plenty of Bass and walleye this summer. Amazing reels can only imagine what a ZENON would feel like.

I can anwser that as i have most of zenon and revo 5 series: zenon feels lighter, lays litle bit more comfortable when palmed and casts lighter lures. End of diferences. No need for upgrade unless you want to cast light lures (down to 1/10 oz.)

@brtslk9076 thanks for your information, I don't really do much finesse fishing. So I guess I'll be fine with my Revos then for how I like to fish. Thanks again and fish on!

The thing with Abu Garcia and most other companies that dont actually make their reels, their most expensive reels feel the same as their lower end reels.

When you order a reel from Japan, can you tell me roughly how much the import tax is on it?
@THEREELTEST17 күн бұрын
In America, Ive never paid import tax. Not sure about other countries

@THEREELTEST Oh...I always thought if we ordered something from Japan /China we would be stuck paying import tax. I saw a used reel on eBay, so I wasn't for sure if I would get stuck paying import tax.
