I have two silver maxes and I've enjoyed using them both. They've been the BC I used to learn with. I've used them so much both thumb bars cracked. I was able to replace them both relatively cheaply. The one thing that I don't like about them is that they are slow reels at 6.4:1. I didn't know why that mattered at the time I bought them. I was able to buy one for $30 off ebay and $40 off amazon.

Super good reel is the Abu Garcia Revo X. I bought the combo as my first caster and I love it. Smooth, quiet and handles braid very well. Hard to beat reel for $100. $130ish for the combo. Rarely ever get backlash and 99% of the time it’s user error, you definitely need to try it out if you haven’t and include it in a video at one point, would like to see your input on it.

I have 4 reels around the $100 range. The SLX, Daiwa Tatula CT, 13 fishing Inception and the Abu Garcia REVO X. I haven't got to fish the SLX yet but just holding it feels very nice. The Abu Garcia has been my favorite to use. The Daiwa feels like the best quality for sure though.

The Shimano SLX is by far the best reel for $99 hands down. I own Shimano, 13 Fishing, Lews, and Abu Garcia reels. I recently bought an SLX to give it a try and boy oh boy was it amazing. It does only have four bearings but Shimano uses high grade quality ball bearings so smoothness is butter. I highly suggest anyone looking for a budget quality reel please give this a shot.

My opinion, for what it's worth ...... for bait casting reels under $100 Kastking: Spartacus 6.3:1, Royal Legend 7.2:1, and Speed Demon 9.3:1. I've used these reels for 3 years now and have never had a problem with them. Spartacus is my favorite. BTW No reel is made in USA. China, Korea, Japan, and Sweden.

The Abu Garcia REVO X is the best reel I’ve ever used around that $100 mark. I can find them at my local tackle shop for around $80. It feels like a $130+ reel. I’ve also just bought a 13 fishing Origin FB and it’s a good one too. But that REVO X is by far my favorite.

newbie for baitcasters here: the only reason to get one is for its casting accuracy? Are there any other advantages compared to a spinner?
@FishingWithYakPak
@FishingWithYakPak 5 лет назад
Eh, yeah accuracy is definitely one of the main points to consider. But honestly you can still catch whatever while using a spinning set up. I’ve got an awesome spinning setup that can literally catch me anything (if not more) than my baitcaster combos. Go check out the video I just posted today and watching me use nothing but my spinning combo. Caught peacock bass and a clown knife fish. 👌🏼😁

It's not the greatest reel, and if you shake it you can feel the handle shaking with it🤣 but it does perform pretty well when you hook into a nice one. But that Carbon Fire is a beast though man

@bassnazi4713 5 лет назад
The retrieve ratio isn't as bad as it gets made into. If you are the impatient type and can't reel slow, I'd say go with the 5.4 or 6.3. If you want to be able to pick up any slack quicker just go with the 7.5. If you can catch the sales you can pick up the LFS for around the same price.

hey yak I pick up a old abu Garcia combo at a yard sale , I been playing with it for 3 weeks . I am ready to buy a new reel & rod , for my 1st set up , where do I start ? I saved 200.00
@FishingWithYakPak
@FishingWithYakPak 5 лет назад
For $200 price range, the Lews Mach Crush is good and I believe $170 as a combo. $200 is your limit right?

I have a carbon fire spooled with 50lb braid for froggin', and it dials in easy. Smooth for the price too, and doesn't backlash (unless its user error on my part 😅). I've only run braid on it though.

Abu Garcia under 180 bucks in general isn’t very good, you’ll have the huge ABU fans disagree but they are in general very loose reels, good for casting far but hard to control and a terrible first baitcaster, unless you do get them as your first, then you get used to it and then it’s fine. But Lews is by far the best company out there. Longevity price customer service they have it all. I am a shimano fan boy but I own just as many Lews and Daiwa

I have the 13 tx to me it just a origin in the different color but definitely a good reel. Personally I think the Lew’s speed spool is best 100.00 or less reel. Has duel braking systems and really smooth..
@FishingWithYakPak
@FishingWithYakPak 5 лет назад
Kenneth Elliott definitely agree! The speed spool is great, it just wasn’t on the shelves. Lews makes amazing stuff no doubt.

You left out Kastking Speed Demon. For $69.00, it is the absolute best Reel I have ever used. But of course, you won't find it in a store. You need to order it on line! If you haven't tried one, I would suggest you do! They now have the Kastking Speed Demon Elite and it is even faster than the Speed Demon original. Fastest Reel in the World! 10 + 1 Bearings.
