LX 6/3 Raptor
April 11, 2022
It's a beast of a reel. I have so much confidence with this reel. I have it spooled with mamoi 80lb braid and a short 80lb flouro top shot. I got hooked up on a 40lb grouper that went directly into the rocks I set the drag to max and this reel gave up absolutely no line the whole fight successfully getting it into the boat. Unfortunately gag grouper is out of season.

Fantastic reel
October 21, 2021
Fantastic reel for the money! Absolutely the best quality! I catch oversize sturgeon in the 10 foot plus category and this is the best reel i have ever used! 2 speed reel gets her off the bottom quick and handles 650 pounds plus fish smoothly and quickly. Can't wait to get more.
Pros
- Smooth and powerful built with top precision and quality!
Cons
- None

Do all Reel
August 15, 2021
This is an incredibly versatile reel and good for individuals who don’t have much/any experience with casting conventional reels thanks to magnetic control. Very good construction, line capacity and drag for the size of the reel.
Pros
- Excellent drag range, great line capacity, flawless craftsmanship, American Made.
Cons
- This is an expensive reel; though it is well worth it this isn?t even really a con because the attention to detail and materials are always going to demand premiums.

Best Reel I Own
July 28, 2021
We got this reel, paired it with a Chaos Composite rod, spooled it with 35lb braid and the first trip out it performed like a rock star. Exceeded expectations, the drag was set at 30% of 35lb and performed flawlessly. Snappers and Groupers didn't stand a chance. Also on the first outing we hooked up with several 6-7' sharks and after a fierce battle of approx 30 mins were able to safely release the sharks. Let the drag do its job, don't try and thumb the spool to add any extra (I have a braid burn from thumbing the spool on a shark)
Pros
- Smoothness of Reel Retrieve
- Smoothness of Drag
- Smoothness of the preset/MC
- Finish
Cons
- Would have liked an aluminum handle as well

Almost perfect.
June 19, 2021
LX Raptor 2sp. Pricey, but good quality for the price. It’s an Avet so I know it’s built to last. I put it on a Seeker Hercules SHS 70XH-7' And it balances perfectly. It fit slightly more line than advertised, but I couldn’t give an exact amount since I have some mono top shot.
Pros
- Strong.
Cons
- No left hand color available.

Great Reel
December 17, 2020
This is just about the best size and class reel you can buy from Avet. Extremely castable and amazing drag for the size. The two speed is a must! I was super surprised when they had a left hand reel, raptor, in gold and was quick to order it. I have 8 Avets in total, this is my go to brand for large or small saltwater game. I can catch monster drum, 3-5 ft sharks, down to large whiting, sand trout and pompano. Extremely versatile.
Pros
- Casting
- Two Speed
- Corrosion Resistant

Solid reel
November 24, 2020
Great reel for the price, plenty of drag for stopping almost anything you can catch from inshore to offshore species. The mc casting system is great as well allowing you to cast different baits or lures of multiple weight ranges without using your thumb as a braking tool.
Pros
- Overall weight to power ratio
- Line capacity
- Gun metal color looks awesome
Cons
- None
