  • Would recommend!
I bought this as a Christmas gift and it has already caught about 30 bass. Great quality with a smooth cast. It looks sleek and nice but it also very functional. We have used Abu Garcia for years and it is a very durable brand coming from people who fish almost daily. It has not been used in salt water environments, but for every day bass fishing in ponds and lakes it is a great reel and comes at a pretty good price point. ... show more

  • Perfect for the weekend angler!
I've been a spinning guy my whole life. When I recently decided to buy my first baitcaster, I went to all the online forums and tried to decipher what I should spend my money on. Well, I quickly found out that if I spent anything less than $150 on a baitcasting reel, it would be a complete waste. I might as well tie a string to a can opener, and fish with that! Fortunately, I've been through this before with other hobbies, so I decided to ignore the haters, and spend a measly $40 on the Black Max. And I made the right decision! If you're a beginner, trust me, the Black Max should be your first baitcaster. It's smooth, casts far, and has plenty of drag. Sure, it takes some practice to learn how to use a baitcaster. I used cheap mono for a while until I got comfortable with it. But after a few fishing trips, I made the switch to braid, and haven't looked back! Yes, you will get a few backlashes in the beginning. It's not as big a deal as you might think. Just start with a tight tension knob, and then loosen it up over time. You'll pick it up pretty quick. I now have two of these reels. They are on $40 Berkley rods, and guess what? I catch fish! And I mean, a lot of fish! Big fish, little fish, in between fish... they don't seem to mind that I'm using cheap equipment. My PB is currently 6 lbs, 2 oz, using my trusty Black Max. In all seriousness, if you're a pro, go ahead and spend the bucks on high dollar stuff. Or if you fish several times a week, I can see investing more. But for the weekend angler, this reel is perfect! P.S. if you are right handed, and you've spent your whole life turning the reel on spinning gear with your left hand... buy left handed baitcasters! You'll thank me later. Update: 4 months later, I now have 3 of these, they’re still awesome! 2nd update: It’s been 8 months since my last update to this review. I’ve been using my 3 Black Max reels for everything... Texas rig, jigs, lipless cranks, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits... you name it. All 3 reels are just as smooth and strong as the day I took them out of the box. I’ve performed minimal maintenance, and I’m fairly tough on them. But they are rock solid! If you’re on the fence about this one, don’t be! Just buy one and try it out. But beware, they’re so good, you might end up buying several more! Last update: I thought I would provide one more update... 2 years later! My Black Max reels are still amazing! I haven’t cleaned them, lubed them, or ever taken them apart to work on them. They are still smooth, strong, and work great. Still hands down, the absolute best beginner reel on the market. And experienced guys will love them too! ... show more

  • Great little reel
This is not my top caster but I purchased this for camping and I needed a small reel and I love Abu Garcia. I'm pleasantly surprised as how well this did. As I said it's not as good as my other reels but it performed well. It's durable, good price, and it cast well. I wold recommend this for camping or beginners. ... show more

  • 12-1 o’clock on the brake is the sweet spot.
Style: Max X (Old Model) Size: Left-Hand - Box
I love this reel! This is a perfect starter reel.. I have fished with spinning rigs my whole life and recently I have been learning how to fish on the warm local lakes and ponds for bass and other species.. I was always intimidated by learning how to use a bait caster because I heard how difficult it was.. once I tuned this reel, in a matter of hours I was able to learn how to cast accurately without the infamous birds nests.. now I’m hooked, pun intended ;) ... show more

  • Max X is a Max Performer
Style: Max X (Old Model) Size: Left-Hand - Box
I target striped bass in rivers & estruaries. I mounted this AB baitcaster to an 8-foot medium-heavy, fast action rod. It's spooled with 20 lb braid with a 24-inch copolymer leader to 4-inch paddletail swimbaits and jerkbaits. The combo casts very far so I can cover alot of water. The drag and spool tension are very predictable. If I nitpick, the reel handles can get a little slick when wet but otherwise it's a top performer and excellent value. ... show more
