The Abu Garcia Revo "Skeet Reese"
reel. Its an Abu Garcia Revo low profile baitcaster with just a bit of
customization by 2007 BASS Angler of the Year Skeet Reese. Just look for the
yellow and black frame, Reese’s trademark colors. Reese simply can’t fish
without his Revo Premier reels but he wanted to tweak the design to fit his
personal fishing needs. The result is one of the lightest aluminum reels on the
market weighing only 6.8 ounces with Angler of the Year features. The one-piece
frame is built with X-Cräftic corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, super light
and super strong. The Revo Skeet Reese uses oversized 6.4:1-gear ratio Duragear
gears made of heavy duty and corrosion-resistant alloy. For Reese a color change
was not enough and this namesake reel features eleven HPCR (High Performance
Corrosion Resistant) bearings for added smoothness during casts and retrieves.
The reel’s Carbon Matrix Drag System incorporates the most consistent drag
pull of any reel in its class. With Carbon Matrix Drag, Reese feels a solid and
smooth line drag, not the erratic pull of line felt on most other drag systems.
“This reel is cool! It’s yellow and black,” said Reese. “But it’s also
cool because it has more bearings than the original Revo Premier, with a special
handle for more power and torque. The eleven bearings give me better casting.
I’m very flattered Abu Garcia has this Special Skeet Reese Edition.”
Available in both a right- and left-hand version, the Revo Skeet Reese has a
line capacity of 145 yards of 12-pound monofilament fishing line. Reese also
selected a centrifugal brake system for his reel as well as the Infini II Spool
and an extended Throw Handle with extra large grips for ease of retrieve. Salt
or fresh, like all Abu Garcia reels, they are "Built for Life".
