abu garcia baitcaster and rod combo Black Max EZ Cast 6' Baitcast Fishing Reel Combo, 2-Piece Rod, Graphite Composite Rod Blank Construction, Comfortable and Durable EVA Handles : Sports & Outdoors The Abu Garcia Revo X Baitcast Combos feature the redesigned Gen5 Revo X low profile reel and a 30 AMAXLP/701MH (Baitcasting)

These reels will have heavier drags, which is better for pulling bass out of heavy cover with heavy line

This combination of components produces a powerful, ultra-light and ultra-sensitive blank without increasing weight or blank diameters

Id recommend the 6.4:1 model for treble-hooked hard lures and the 8.0:1 model for any bottom-contact techniques such as jigs, Texas rigs and Carolina rigs

Presenting light baits to spooky bass has never been easier, as the Rocket Line Management system and Rocket Spool Lip Design allows you to keep your distance and make technical casts with ease

This is great for generating ferocious reaction strikes, however I tend to blowout my baits when using a higher gear ratio
