Getting an Avet Raptor
« on: October 31, 2011, 06:26:21 PM »
Just put money down for an Avet SX6/4 Raptor. Anyone ever use this reel? I really like it, but thought I'd ask for some feedback. Thanks guys  slt

Nice product for bragging rights but way out of my range in affordability.

I personally own and use several of the regular Avet reels from the SX to the MXL and LX. I like them for the fishing that I do which is inshore and/or bottom fishing.The Raptor series gives a stronger drag which makes this reel suitable for  big game fishing. Might be a good reel for jigging bluefins. Good luck with it  ;D
