🎣Abu Garcia Max SX Low Profile Baitcast Reel — 6.8:1 (7+1 Bearings)
The Abu Garcia Max SX Low Profile Reel (6.8:1) brings Revo 5-inspired technology into the trusted Max LP family, giving anglers a smooth, powerful low-profile baitcasting reel at a price that makes upgrading easy. Built around a lightweight A-Sym (asymmetric) body design, the Max SX sits more compactly in your palm for better comfort, better control, and less fatigue during high-cast-count days.
Designed for versatile bass techniques, this reel pairs a smooth 7+1 bearing system with Abu Garcia’s Duragear™ brass gear for consistent power and long-term durability. When fish surge or dig into cover, the upgraded Power Disk™ Drag System delivers up to 15 lbs of max drag, while the MagTrax™ Braking System helps you dial in casting control and reduce overruns. Finished with a strong 90mm aluminum bent handle and co-molded soft touch knobs, the Max SX offers a “buttery” retrieve feel that’s ideal for everything from spinnerbaits and chatterbaits to Texas rigs and jigs. 🎣
