Questions about Abu Garcia Revo STX Low Profile Fishing Reel
Q:
I ordered a left hand revo4 stx but looking at the order it only has revo and not the 4..is the same thing?
Answer: If the order does not say Abu Garcia Revo4 STX, it is not the correct reel. It should also specify Left Hand. The number "4" stands for the version produced. If you do receive the reel, turn it over and see if it is stamped with "Revo4 STX".
Q:
Does this model have a clicker?
Answer: The Abu Garcia Revo STX low profile fishing reel does NOT have a clicker.
Answer: No it doesn't. You'll probably have to go with a round model like the ambassador for that
Answer: No, it doesn’t.
Answer: No sir.
Answer: No it does not
Q:
What is the gear ratio on this reel?
Answer: hi,
Q:
Do you have other models
Answer: We have the Revo SHS 8.0:1 Gear Ratio and the Abu Garcia Pro Rocket 5500 BE + the 6500 BE
Q:
The reel abu garcia revo4 stx has right hand and gear ratio 6.6.1
Answer: The Abu Garcia REVO4 STX, right hand, has three gear ratios - 6:6.1, 7:3.1, and 8:0.1. I used the Abu Garcia REVO4 STX with the 8:0.1 ratio this past week while fishing in Minnesota for Musky. I was very impressed with the retrieval speed. I also have the same reel with a 7:3.1 ratio. I have been very happy with this type of reel.
Q:
Can this reel be used for salt water?
Answer: I’ve been using the same Abu Garcia Revo S (2) and STX (1) reels in saltwater for over 10 years and they’re in good condition. I have several of these and yes I do rinse them after use.
Answer: You could probably use it for saltwater if you rinsed it off thoroughly at the end of the day.
Answer: No
Q:
What’s the difference in stx and stx shs
Answer: SHS is the highest speed reel. I believe it stands for ‘super high speed’. 8.0:1 ratio.
Q:
Do you have this but with 8.0.1 gear ratio?! how much? land how do i buy?
Answer: The Abu Garcia Revo4-STX comes in three different speed ratios, which means how quickly you can retrieve the line. All three speeds are prices the same. You have to be careful, when buying this reel, to make sure you are purchasing the one which meets your retrieval needs.
Q:
What lb line will it take?
Answer: I intetnd to use SPIDER WIRE, STEALTH-BRAID , 50 lb. I am targeting on fishing TUCUNARÉ at Amazon rivers
Q:
how much drag force?
Answer: It is rated at 24lbs, and it is VERY close to that number. You can lock the drag down for punching, flipping, or frogging and not have to worry about it slipping on a hookset
Answer: 24# drag
Q:
Is this a saltwater reel?
Q:
Is the 8.0.1 a right handed reel
Answer: Yes it is. It is the REVO4 STX-SHS model number
Q:
I need one in. The 8.0 to 1 gear ratio
Answer: you can find Abu Garcia reels with the 8.o to 1 gear ratio on Amazon. A word of caution. Make sure that the picture you see on the Internet is the one you are looking for. I saw a picture that said the reel had a 7.3 to 1 gear ratio. When it arrived at my house I found that it was a 8.0 to 1 gear ratio. I this case I was happy because I prefer the faster ratio when casting for Northern Pike and Muskie.
Q:
I could not see, is this a right hand reel?
Answer: Yes. A left hand will be STX-LH
Answer: Yes
Q:
what year is this reel?
Answer: This is the Revo STX that is currently in production. You can tell because it is listed as Revo4-STX. The older models of this reel have Revo3.
Answer: It is the 4th edition. (Revo4). Came out around 2017 or 18 I think.
Q:
Is this a right hand model?
Answer: good morning Abu
Q:
What's the difference from stx and stx-hs?
Answer: stx-hs is a high speed reel
Product reviews of Abu Garcia Revo STX Low Profile Fishing Reel
Trent : Great product. Performs flawlessly
Spooled the reel up with some spiderwire 30lb stealth braid and paired the reel to an Abu Garcia Veritas 6’6” medium heavy rod for a nice lightweight and short package. Performance was great.
The brakes are a little difficult to activate if you have larger fingers and short finger nails. You can use a small hook, pen, or knife to gently lift them.
Great distance from the reel and rod combo with 1/4 oz spoons. Caught two rainbow trout and a largemouth in the first hour.
Lacks instructions on maintenance, operation, etc... so the internet is going to be your friend there.
Viacheslav : Awesome
Never gonna buy Shimano again. One thing I did immediately - replaced spool bearings for Boca Bearings ceramic (Apec7) - 30% improved my casting. STX+Boca Bearings >>Abu Premier.
I found that the breaking system works best with all six weights ON, and axial breaks nearly off or somewhat tightened for heavier lures.
Cindy Broome : Not what I ordered
First of all let me say this is a great reel, but this not what I ordered. I ordered a 7:3.1 gear ratio and received a 6:6.1.
cod fisher : information on the product
price ease of getting it from overseas
Kim Nickelson : GOOD QUALITY REEL
GOOD QUALITY REEL
Amazon Customer : Know the stock number of item being purchased
Item purchased arrived in two days of being ordered. Item shown on the Amason site was a 7:3.1 ratio reel. What I received was what I really wanted - an 8:0.1 ratio reel. Could not be happier with what I received.

Gary kennedy : Very good casting real and very smooth
Once you set the internal brakes to where you comfortable and set the real to where bait falls round 12 inches can get some very long cast out of the real no backlashes are none of that stuff on light baits the real does everything I need it to do very easily just spend a little time with it
HHF : Exceeded expectations
Use this reel in saltwater 100% and this reel has performed flawlessly. Initial setup was easy with all brakes activated and settled on 2 activated. Throws both Corky Fat Boys and jerk baits with as small as 1/8 oz jig heads a long way. The retrieve is also very smooth.
