Product Description

Amazon.com

Evocative of the hefty limits of largemouth bass and walleye, the Black MAX Low Profile Baitcast Reel from Abu Garcia brings back the old-school ways--when a day of fishing meant pre-dawn cross-lake excursions, weary arms, sunburn necks, top-water heart stopping excitement, and the powerful Texas rig hook set. No corners were cut when constructing the Black Max Reel. Featuring Swedish engineering, MagTrax brakes, Duragear brass gears, 6.2:1 high speed retrieve, cam lock, ADS (anti-distortion) wiffle spool, instant anti-reverse, and a flipping switch, the Black MAX is a superior reel by every measure. The Black Max is available in left- or right-hand retrieve, has a line capacity of 12/160, and is backed by a one-year warranty.

About Abu Garcia:

    Abu Garcia was founded in Svangsta, Sweden, near the Morrum River in 1921. Originally a watch factory, the company turned its focus to the development of precision fishing reels in the late 1930s under the direction of the founder's son, Gote Borgstrom. Its first reel was the Abu Record in 1941, followed by the world-famous Ambassadeur reel in 1952 and the Cardinal spinning reel in 1965. Today, Abu Garcia is one of the world's most advanced fishing reel factories, producing rugged and dependable rods, reels, and lures for all types of fishing with fine Swedish engineering and craftsmanship.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great inexpensive reel for 6 months, November 3, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I've had this reel about three weeks now. I use it two or three times a week and it has performed as good as my $150.-$225. reels. I like it so much, I ordered another one yesterday. If they last only a year, I'm ahead of the game. I wouldn't send it back to A.G. They charge as much for repairs as a new reel cost but this one will give you your money's worth.
Both reels are now trash.You can wash them and oil them but they still get corroded and stop working smoothly. Lasted only nine months. Not as good as I hoped.

4.0 out of 5 stars One Issue, September 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a great fishing reel for the beginners to baitcasting, like myself. It has a fast retrieve rate, very smooth, and fairly easy to cast really far. The drags are very easy to use, and it doesn't just feel cheap when you pick it up. However, when I purchased my Abu Black Max, I ordered a standard right-handed reel, and was given a left-handed instead. Both options were listed on the purchase page, and this was supposed to be the right-hander. Oh well, I can use either hand, you use the left hand for spinning reels anyway.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank You Mr. Garcia, April 24, 2010
Great reel for the money! I've used this reel everyday for 3 weeks and no issues. I have seen on other websites that this reel has some issues but i have yet to find any i mostly use it for texas rigging and fishing other plastics. Cant be any happier for the quality and cost. Another great Abu Garcia reel in my opinion
