Avet Single Speed Reels
Avet single speed reels include industry leading features unlike any other reel on the market. Featuring an adjustable strike pre-set lever drag system, precision machined 6061-T6 aluminum and stainless steel components, 8 rubber sealed stainless steel ball bearings, stainless steel gears and Avet's smooth, powerful Avedrag dry drag system. Avet single speed reels are at the peak of quality and performance. All Avet single speed reels are available with or without their M.C. Cast control system. (except HXW)

Avet 2-Speed Reels
Avet 2-speed reels include all of the quality features of our single speed reels, with 2-speeds. The simple, yet reliable gear shift mechanism built into the 2-speed models is so easy to operate that it becomes second nature almost immediately. The push button located at the center of the handle arm permits shifting between the high and low gears without your hand ever leaving the handle knob, and can be shifted with or without pressure, so you can shift while cranking, or when a fish is running. All Avet 2-speed lever drag casting reels (SX-HX) are available with or without their M.C. Cast control system.

Avet M.C. Cast Anti-Backlash / Cast Control
Avet's revolutionary M.C. Cast (Magic Cast) adjustable magnetic anti-backlash cast control system is available as an option on all of their single and 2-speed casting reels, SX through HX. The M.C. Cast control system incorporates Avet's Patented Adjustable Intensity Polar Amplification Technology to create the most efficient and easy to use cast control system for a conventional style reel. From the lightest bait to heavy lures, the M.C. Cast Control System is simple to use, even if you have never before cast a conventional style reel. Simply place your thumb on the spool to cast, swing, remove your thumb from the spool and let it fly! You will only need to thumb the spool when the lure hits the water.

Avet Raptor Series Reels
Avet Raptor Series Reels are the cutting edge in compact large game reels. These reels are consistently landing shockingly large fish in relation to their compact size. Designed for use with the ultra thin, super strong superbraid lines available today, it's now possible to target large game species with a reel half of the size and weight compared to a reel traditionally designed for similar monofilament line and drag capacities. And the Raptor has the drag and cranking power to back it up.

The Avet Raptor Series comes standard with Avet's innovative 2-speed gears and a ratcheting drag lever with a positive stop strike button to prevent accidental advancement past strike. Featuring Avet's patented DUAL DIRECT DRIVE Full Surface Caliper Brake System, Raptor models put out nearly twice the drag pressure of the original Avets! There's a Raptor model that will stop any fish in the ocean, yet small and light enough to cast. If you find a fish too big for a Raptor, you probably wouldn't want it near your boat! The Raptor Series reels are the same sizes as the original Avet reels, with enhanced line capacities, and each are engineered and built to fish several line classes heavier than the original Avet Reels.

Love this, my favorite for everything.
TD sells these with the guide plate on, no extra charge for it.
Pros
  • Great free spool better than a BX-500
  • MC is the best system for long casting especially if you're not doing it everyday.
  • Everything is done right with AVET and will work as intended for a lifetime.

GREAT REEL WITH EXCELLENT FEATURES BUT...
September 21, 2021
Bought this reel about 2 months ago and have taken it out twice. Compact and light enough to handle fishing with it all day paired with an Edge Rod FSC LRR 7630 for flylining. I'm not exactly proficient with using lever drag but the hookups set nicely and if more power was needed, the drag can be advanced further to really lock it down.
The only thing that caused a problem for me was the J-Braid 4 strand 65lb was actually thin enough to slip into the gap between the spool and housing. That caused the reel to bind and unable to free spool. My fault for putting too much line on and an easy fix by stripping off some line. Otherwise, powerful little reel, I can't wait to see how it performs in low gear for bottom fishing.

I fish out of San Deigo, mainly for 20- 30 lb schoolers. I'm going on my first 7 day next Aug. and I want to make sure I'm prepared for larger fish. (Hopefully 100+ lber). What rod would I pair this reel with if I use it for mainly casting 5- 6 inch sardines?
1 Answers
The Shimano TZCX66XHBLK Terez Conventional Fishing Rod Black would pair well with the Avet MXL 6/4 MC Raptor 2-Speed Lever Drag Casting Reel Dorado.

is this a great surf casting reel ? does anyone know the difference between one and two speed ?
1 Answers
This reel would work well for the surf. The difference between 1 and 2 speed is that with the two speed, you can change the speeds of the reel. There is a low gear and a high gear. Usually the high gear is what you use most of the time, but if you get hooked into a big fish you can kick it into low gear to get more torque on the fish and pull it in easier.
