What do you think about Abu Garcia Revo S baitcasting reels

Honestly like the stx a lot more than the s had them both in my hand. I like the new gen revos better than last gen, they are based on the mgx frame which makes them a lot smaller and lighter IMO

I'm the opposite, I've owned both and no longer have the STX because I traded another member for another Revo S because I liked the feel of the S better than I did the STX. Haven't even touched one of the new models, these were last years reels.

I have 6 of the SX HS and love them. They are bullet proof. I don't take good care of them. Use them 200 times a year. Leave them on/in the boat. The only time they get cleaned is when it's raining. And still flawless performance.

Before I converted to all Shimano reels, I had Revo's. All first gen. Originaly I had an S, SX, and an STX. I didn't like either the SX or the STX, sold the SX and got another S, and traded the STX off for something else. I used those S's alot for 3-4 years with nothing more than general maint. and they were still going strong when I got rid of them. They are probably the only non-shimano reels I would buy again, and now maybe the STX since it has the dual breaking. That was my biggest problem with the 1st gen SX, and STX I had, just too touchy with the mag. brakes.

The Revo S is a great reel. Its my main setup for my bankfishing and softplastic setup when I go to the everglades. I have it with 10lb yozuri and its awesome. Light, smooth, and strong when needed.

The REVO S is an amazing reel. I have the new STX too, and honestly it's not $70 better than the S. The STX has the dual braking system so you can flip and pitch or make it your casting reel, but the S is just too good for the price for me to recommend the STX instead. I love both though.

great reel. I have Gen 1s,2s and 3s. My favorite reel i own is a Gen 2 Premier, then my MGX, then my Gen 3 Revo S.
