My first Avet
March 18, 2022
This was my first Avet reel. I liked it so much I've bought 3 more Avets since. One thing you should know is that all of the Avets I've bought make a rough noise when cranked. I did some research and learned that this is common. The roughness goes away after putting a drop of oil in the spool bearing and giving it a few cranks. After this "break-in" they're smooth as can be.
Pros
- Light weight, well build, made in America.
Cons
- Bearing needs oil.

Compact and a workhorse!

I can’t say enough good things about this reel. Used it back up north to battle it out from tog to small tuna. Now I use it as leverage against big bull reds and large grouper on the reefs.

Have quite a few of these in various colors, I haven’t had any issues with any of them, setup in various ways for different purposes, they’re like a jack of trades reel and can perform great in multiple roles

perfect all around option
November 18, 2021
super solid option and very flexible reel. Have used for everything from slow pitch for seabass, jigging for fluke, and chunking for stripers and blues. If i could do it all again i would opt for the narrow version but this reel gives you so much flexability in how you can use it. Own 2 of them and never had any issues. Dont cast a ton with it but no tangles due to the MC feature.

I pretty much only use this reel to cast my anchor when pin rigging for kings off the pier. But it works great and can really get some distance.

I have caught 40-50 halibut, countless rockfish and lingcod and the odd Pacific random fish... this reel performs, is easy to maintain and is just cool. The aluminum construction is nice and the reel is fun to play with when I'm sitting on a conference call for work!
Pros
- Nice drag. Well built. Easy to maintain.
Cons
- None so far.

Great for casting
October 29, 2020
This is the first time I could consistently cast with a conventional reel. Once I put electrical tape around the spool prior to tying line, I had very little trouble with backlash. Didn’t cast as far as I would have hoped but still get good distance. Also great as a boat reel which I believe it was designed for.
Pros
- Magnets for anti backlash.
- Light weight.
- Cast ability.
- Gear ratio.
Cons
- No level wind.
- Casts similar distance to spin cast.
- (Might get better with practice, also meant for casting from boat, I cast from the beach)

Great reel for just about anything. I mostly use mine for Tog and it works perfectly. Plenty of power to pull the big ones out of cover.
