Evocative of the hefty limits of largemouth bass and walleye, the PRO MAX (tm) 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, topwater heart stopping excitement, and the powerful Texas rig hook set. No corners were cut when constructing the PRO MAX Reel. Featuring Swedish engineering, MagTrax (tm) brakes, Duragear (tm) brass gears, 6.2:1 high speed retrieve, cam lock, ADS (anti-distortion) wiffle spool, instant anti-reverse, and a flipping switch, the PRO MAX is a superior reel by every measure. The PRO MAX boasts an 8 bearing drive, is available in right hand retrieve, has a line capacity of 12/160, and is backed by a 1-year warranty.

The reel is a darn good one for the money.The manual really sucks. I had a question about one of the features that wasn't covered in the manual and believe me,these people are on the ball. Emailed them in the evening,had a detailed answer in the morning.
My only complaint is the very skimpy manual.Any manual should include detailed information about servicing the equipment.

Very good people to deal with.

Of course it came through Amazon,so no worries.

I have two Abu Garcia PRO MAX reels. My kids bought me one a year ago today for Fathers Day. I liked it so much I bought one from AMAZON. The only differance is the one that came from AMAZON came with a flipping switch. (BONUS)....I've caught many 7 to 10lb large mouth bass and it keeps on keeping on. Just like any reel , you have to keep it clean, oiled, and greased.
Thanks AMAZON for the low price and the quick shipping.

I've been using this reel in heavy cover situations while fishing a hollow body frog. I've been pulling lunkers out of heavy cover and am extremely satisfied
with its performance. I intend to purchase another one soon.
