Questions about Abu Garcia Revo Rocket Low Profile Baitcast Fishing Reel

Abugarcia website doesnt even have this in stock. They say its new and wont be avail not until 9/10/18. How are you selling it already? Clone?

Answer: This is 2020. 2018 is long gone.

I reel in with my left hand, rod in my right hand, not sure which one to pick right hand or left hand?

Answer: Pick the left hand unit if you reel with your left hand on a conventional reel. Its the opposite for a left handed spinning reel which you would hold the rod in your left hand and reel with the right hand. Can't explain why.....it just is...

Answer: For years I would fish a bait caster opposite of the way I fished a spinning or spincast reel, that was when I fished with a spinning reel and spincast that is cast with my right hand and reel with my left, and bait caster I would cast with my right switch my left and reel with my right hand, for years that's what people told me to do even though it did not make sense if I typacally reeled with my left and casted with my right hand... BOTTOM LINE IS GET A LEFT HANDED REEL IF YOU ARE RIGHT HANDDED... And opposite if you are left handed

Answer: So, I was the same.

Answer: I throw with my right and reel with my left so I don't have to switch hands with the rod like so many right handed people do.

Answer: Pick Left hand. Best Regards.

Answer: Left handed.

Answer: Left Handed

Answer: Left

Picture shows gen 3 item description shows gen 4 ? Which one is it?

Answer: Very smooth and fast

yes, since you have a left and right hand profile for new bait caster reels,do you worry about aleft or right handed fishinf pole,Why?

Answer: I am going to answer this question as if it's a serious question from someone who has never fished. I have never heard of a specific rod that is right or left handed. Fishing rods from Abu work for both reel types. Now to the next point a left or right hand reel is not based upon what your dominant hand may be but fishing style or what is more comfortable for you. For example I am left handed but I use right hand retrieve reels. This way I don't have to switch hands when I get ready to cast and for those lucky times when I get a bit as soon as the bait hits the water I am ready to set the hook.

Answer: As addressed by others - funny.

Answer: For balance you have to have a right handed pole for a left handed reel

Answer: No, poles do not require left or right handed designation. All poles can be used by left or right handed users.

Answer: Very funny .. if I were you I would stay with a Zebco 33.

Answer: 9.1

Answer: Each turn of the crank moved the lure 41 inches closer. Actual measurement on my part.

Could this handle throwing 3 ounce swim baits ?

Answer: You don't want to use a reel with such a high ratio for swimbaits. You want to use one that's around 5.4:1 or 6.1:1 for any swimbaits. If you're throwing jigs, then this is the reel you'd want.

Answer: It is always easier to reel a far reel slower than make a slow reel faster. Yes it will with great for everything you want to use it for, you just need to understand what it is your throwing and it's best presentation.

Answer: I wouldn't recommend it.

what is the capacity of powerpro line?

Answer: I have the Revo 3 with 9.0:1 ratio.

Does this reel have brass gears?

Answer: The main gear is plastic. Many of the reels components are plastic including the reel seat. I use this reel on my 10 1/2 foot float rod loaded with 50 lb. superline for winter run steelhead as well as silver salmon with no problems. If you use it for bass, there should be no problem either. Many of todays plastics are much stronger then years ago.

Answer: I'm not sure... but the reel is junk. Put your money towards a Curado DC or SLX DC, you'll LOVE that reel!

Hi, Where is it made?

As I can see this reel was launched back in 2014, is it still a good choice or it's considered old somehow?

Answer: Great reel, they will keep coming out with new models each year. I have a Revo SX and a Revo MGX that are both several years old and as long as you maintain them they still work great.

Answer: Absolutely not, this reel is still amazing. It’s built very well. The line recovery is unreal and great for recasting after missing a opportunity to bring a fish in. I paired mine with a lews tp1 speed stick and it’s amazing, I’ve received so many compliments on my setup. Great buy and worth every penny.

Is this a good reel for a flipping stick for bass in the lilly pads and thicker cover?

Answer: yes, this a very smooth powerful reel with great retrieving distance pre crank.

Answer: For me yes. The fast line take up is great. But be aware. If you want to lock the drag down its takes pliers. You can't crank it down tight with your fingers.

Is it salt water approved?

Answer: I own two of these reels and only use them in salt water, no problems.

Answer: No

How big is the spool

Can i use this reel in saltwater?

Answer: Ivan,

Answer: Prefer not to because it is a freshwater reel.

Answer: Hello

Product reviews of Abu Garcia Revo Rocket Low Profile Baitcast Fishing Reel

Bob G : Nice reel for bass fishing , needs a bigger crank

Was time to add another reel to the arsenal for fishing season. Have had Garcia's in the past and have had good luck. The rocket was touted as 10 to 1 retrieve and it does indeed do that well. I was hoping for a bit bigger crank for comfort. For this price point it seems well built with all the other knobs well placed and seams look tight. Comfort in left hand is fine. On the fence if I overpaid for this reel or not only time will tell.

Ron : I like the reel

I like the reel, its just what I was expecting. I really wish that it would've come with a manual and parts list like I usually get with the purchase of a new reel.

KEITH R GREENE : Five Stars

Awesome deal for reel .very high quality

Virmones Tavares : Fast and Light

Very fast reel where you can work on many possibilities with lure provoking fish to attack to eat, rage or defence. Work good on fights with big fish.

Stephen Simpson : Speed

This reel is great for flipping. Many times fish (bass) will crush a bait and roll out. This reel catches them quickly and makes landing them a breeze

james bentley : Excellent purpose reel, but not for everything

Excellent reel. Extremely light. Small size fits my hand very well. But for those who have read reviews saying it's an excellent do everything reel, it is not. If you want a reel to throw spinnerbaits, mid range crankbaits, go for the 7.1 or lower stx. But if you want a reel for pitching plastics, hopping them a half dozen time and getting them back to the boat to do it again, which is what I bought 2 of these reels for, they are excellent. The only minus for the reel is the advertised 20lbs of drag cannot be achieved with your thumb, it takes pliers.

That one angler : sleek and very comfortable to cast and reel

I have wanted this reel for years now but Never actually came around to buying it until not too long ago. WORTH EVERY LAST CENT. It is lightweight, sleek and very comfortable to cast and reel. It feels very comfortable in the hand. This reel not only looks amazing, but feels amazing. I love the quality Abu Garcia puts into every reel. I highly recommend this reel.

Roger Bullock : This is a nice reel. Smooth and light weight

Abu garcia reels are great! Swiss made or not!

Kevin Guthrie : This is one sweet reel. I've always used spinning reels to avoid ...

This is one sweet reel. I've always used spinning reels to avoid the headaches of the backlash. Since I bought this reel and used it a couple of times I have not experienced a backlash. I spun 30# braid on it and launch lures effortlessly.

magic man : Do not buy

Backlash! I could not get this "dialed in". I purchase a shimano curado and love it. I won over 15 bait casters and the shimano is my favorite. If you are an experienced bait caster, do not buy this one.

otavio augusto llorente : Five Stars

Rodney C. : Great

Love this reel. It is a dream to use.

S. Rivera : WOW!! What a gorgeous piece of machinery!

I was lucky enough to get one of these "Revo Rocket 10.1:1" monster reels from AbuGarcia and I couldn't be happier. The construction and engineering of this thing is top notch. It truly is a Rocket. Once you start reeling it in, you are done in the blink of an eye. Its great for flipping and pitching. I also use it for frogging. I paired it up with a 7'-6" Heavy Fast AbuGarcia Vengeance baitcasting rod. They work great together but I feel the reel deserves a better rod. Might get an AbuGarcia Villain with the same specs. The reel itself is very smooth and reminds me of my AbuGarcia Revo Premier. It is very similar in feel and materials. Very lightweight and good looking. But most importantly, it cast a mile. That alone is worth its weight in gold, not to mention all the rest of the positives. It is a reel that I will be using for a long time to come. The components are high end/professional grade. Bracking system is great and the spool is lightweight. Spool tension is easy to use and retrieve is as smooth as butter. The drag system is strong and reliable. Excellent for tournament level fishing. When you need that fast retrieve, you can't beat this reel. Remember, you get what you pay for.
So!! Gettchaself one!! or two!! or three!!

Roy A. West : Always fishing

This reel is as advertised. It's the fastest retrieval I has ever seen. Sometime a little to fast when I'm fishing plastics I tend to rush a bit.

FXC : Four Stars

Good product.

John Moch : Five Stars

works great

james bentley : Excellent purpose reel, but not for everything

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

Excelent baitcasting reel, light and smooth

Benjman : Seller was awesome and shipped it in half the expectant time of ...

Seller was awesome and shipped it in half the expectant time of delivery. This reel surpassed my expectations. It brings in line faster than I can blink. I know Abu Garcia created it in mind of the guys who love to flip and pitch but it burns a spinner bait and buzzbait just perfectly as well. Same with all topwater baits. It's also a perfect worm and jig reel which is mainly why I bought it. Plus flukes. Basically if you're in a hurry to cast somewhere else on the water to get in that fishes face this is the reel for you.

gary l. howard : Can buy better for less

Like the fast retrieve
Good reel but not worth the cost

John Moch : Five Stars

works great

Brooks : Great reel with fast smooth retrieve

Great reel with fast smooth retrieve. Be sure to keep your thumb in position to stop the spool because it will allow more line to roll off and cause problems if you don't stop the spool rotation after a cast.

nollhouse : Excellent product

This reel is outstanding. Lightweight, perfect small profile reduces stress on my hand for longer outings. I have it paired with a 7ft medium weight frog rod. Long casting with little effort is a breeze. Great braking system works very well with lighter baits. Really happy with this purchase.

andrew whitlock : LOVE THIS REEL

Bought this reel 3 years ago use it to flip and high speed buzzbait fishing...LOVE THIS REEL...smooth fast and reliable own many reels all Abu Garcia nothing but the best...pair this reel with a 7,6 mojo bass and u can't go wrong...best reel I have and ever will buy...thanks Abu...#abuforlife!!!

Jason : Best reel I've ever had

I've landed numerous 15lb. plus salmon out of the river with this thing mounted to a Lamiglass infinity rod. Best reel I've ever had. I was a curado guy for years won't go back now.

Steven C Reigel : one for me and one for my son after he tried mine and fell in love with it

I purchased 2 of these reels, one for me and one for my son after he tried mine and fell in love with it. It's perfect reel for top water and buzz baits and I use it for jigs and worms as well. You can slow your retrieve down to bounce, swim, or drag your jig or worm and the reel in fast enough to take up the slack in a nano second for hook set. The reel is very light, but strong and will hold up for years with regular maintenance. If you want a reel for any type of fast presentation, you need to take a look at this one.

José Helio : Nice

very good, I liked the product

Ron : I like the reel

I like the reel, its just what I was expecting. I really wish that it would've come with a manual and parts list like I usually get with the purchase of a new reel.

Abdul Hadi Nasution : cast farther

André Julio Neves Cesar Leal : Five Stars
