abu garica preimer/stx/sx

Featured Replies

i am wondering whats the difference beetween those 3 abu garicas reels besides the weight and bearings

The SX & STX come in 6.4:1 or 7.1:1. The Premier is a 6.4:1. The STX and Premier use the Infini Spool free spool design and a coated pawl and pinon shaft. The Premier has alloy gears as opposed to brass making it the lightest of the three.

ah ok thanks for the help

They beefed up the drag on the Premier to 20lbs for this year but the STX is 24.

The SX does not have centrifugal brakes, while the other 2 do.

Those are some cool reels. I am seriously thinking about snagging one. I am drawn to the Premier. I know it is expensive, but it is light as a feather, and I love the EVA Grips. The weight is a big thing to me. I want something that I can fish ALL DAY and never get fatigued. I am still trying to wait and make the right choice, I want "the one". My wife told me to get one I love that wont leave me wanting. The premier has it all.

IMHO, you will not be dissapointed in the Premier.  I purchased on in December and liked it so much, I set out again to find another and found one about a week ago.  The Premier is at the top for it's class of aluminum framed reels.  From the cast to the retrieve, it is buttery smooooooth.  I was able to cast a 1/4 rat-l trap with it a country mile and even landing in the chicken coop :D  It is an awesome reel with unlimited upgrade possibilities.
