Lovely reel I would like to hear how the drag and gears compare to Daiwa and Shimano, which is what I normally use. I must say it is nice to see how well Abu presents the reel, and the additional accessories something that Daiwa and Shimano should learn from. Top end Daiwa and Shimano only offer spacers clear tape that nobody know exactly what it is for, and a crappy bag.
The drag should/will be the same as my Revo SP Beast 2500 I'm sure - as they are basically the same reel with the exception of weight - I am noticing that once mounted on a rod -- the rod isn't as balanced as with the Revo ... and that is something I never anticipated -- I try to keep my rods under 100g of weight. Soo interesting -- as I like a really balanced slightly heavier reel handle in order to have the lure complete the balance. I'll see what happens when I get it out in the field to experience. Oh -- and rightly said - Shimano and Daiwa could own the space by including some extras upon purchase - and... it would literally cost them nothing to provide !
3:05 - 3:50 really2 makes LOL...
GREAT REEL!
I know right -- ugh ... the reel is smarter than me ... for the love....
