Avet SX, MXL and LX Reels in Camo Color


Check out these beautiful reels from Avet!

They call this color camo, although it looks more like the special edition Accurate reels from a few years ago that were mottled. While those were a mixture of black and silver, these are a mix of blue and black. They really look very nice!

They are available in SX, MXL and LX in both the 4.6 and 6.0 gear ratios. No 2-speeds. If we get a lot of people asking us for them, then we will have some made up. This goes for left handed versions as well.

Typical Avet, on the MXL, the spool and the lever drag knob are solid black. I don't know why they do this. Anyway, these reels are really nice and if you are looking for something different from the usual, pick one up here!

Daiwa Saltist STT20H and STT30H

Just got in our first shipment of Daiwa Saltist STT20H and STT30H.  The reels look great.  We have been waiting a long time for these reels and they are excellent.  With the smaller size, combined with braided line, it is possible to fish lighter, stronger tackle. 

If you were thinking of purchasing an Avet SX, MXJ, or MXL, it might be time to rethink.  The new Saltists are priced at $159.99, which is $40 cheaper than the least expensive Avet Reel. They also sport stronger drags, maxing out at 15.4 lbs, while the Avets max out at 9 lbs.  The Saltists also have a star drag, which for the novice fisherman is a better choice.  I've seen a lot of people break expensive reels because they do not know how to properly operate a lever drag.  

The one advantage the Avet has over the new Saltists is the weight.  The Saltists weigh approximately 2 oz more than the Avet SX, which still 2 oz. lighter than an MXL.  
Overall, I believe the new Daiwa Saltist 20 and 30 will be winners in the long run.  

Sincerely,
Josh
