Everyone please welcome....."revowarrior" to the Abu Garcia posse! I think he's going to like his new toy, even if he won't ever publicly admit it.  :)

Welcome RevoWarrior!

Now, I would hope somebody will grace us with the detailed story of how it came to be.  Considering the main character of the story, I'm sure it will be interesting.

Anyway, I think it's great when anyone expands their knowledge base through new products.  He's an influential guy and now he'll have even more to share.

This is a red letter day in history. What's next, Sufix line and Carrot Stix rods?

RW was standing outside the lodge, a guy wearing a mask ran buy and haned it to him and kept running ;D

The acquisition was unintended, very innocent and most of all well deserved! Chinese fortune cookie says  he will catch many smallies with it!!!!

I sold all my Shimano reels and now I fish Daiwa, I have never been happier.

i just happen to have photographic evidence of this said defection. to release the photos could be catastrophic though, so i'll keep them hush hush.

Just saw it on the weather channel.  

Hell has officially frozen over!

If he puts some P-Line on it, hell has indeed frozen.

It will really freeze over if he then rigs an *** Salty *** on it

All righty, this is the story:

Glenn presented the staff with a token of appreciation,

which came as a complete surprise to us all. It is our

privilege, individually and as a group, to work with Glenn.

At the dinner Wednesday night all the moderators received a Abu Garcia Revo STX.

My new reel has replaced a Metanium on my jerkbait rod and I will

report back with a side-by-side review after fishing the Revo for

awhile. I can tell you that this is a beautiful reel and a very nice gift,

which I sincerely appreciate.

More, later...

Kent,

You are one of the most stereotyped guys here. ...lol

Owning one Abu, among "umpteen" Shimanos really doesn't change much... even if he ends up really likeing the Revo. Variety is the spice of life! ...lol

"idk but I had  a revo stx and nothing special to me I'll take my shimanos  :) any day"

 Spoken like a true gentleman!!!

                As Ever,

One of the first things I did after making it home late Saturday night, was put some line on this thing, and go backyard casting. What a sweet reel, and an awesome gift from Glenn. This was totally unexpected, and absolutely not necessary, but he did it anyway. Thank you, Glenn. I'll put it to good use. I'll be able to give you all a review once I've caught a couple of fish with it.

Cheers,

GK

I was a witness and a member of the Shimano posse. We only got to fish for a little while on Friday, but RW threw the Revo quite a bit, even let me & Wayne give it a whirl. It's a beautiful reel, but for me, it takes a while to really put one through it's paces and play with adjustments and line & lure weights to really make my reels perform to their potential. It's almost like they have a personality and you have to get to know them. I will look forward to a detailed review when Kent has fished it for a while. Looking forward to that.
