Holmer Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I am thinking of getting an Abu "Record" and was hoping someone out there has tried one and can tell me if they are worth the money? I've got an Abu "Morrum Mag-X", an "Eon" and a "PGS" and really like them, but they are kind of touchy. The Record appears to be kind of a smoother version of their older, beefier reels (like the C4), and that's what I'm hoping for; something that can take some abuse without me cleaning a reel in the field.

gdowdy Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 The Record and the new Revo series reels are the best reels that Garcia has ever built. You will not be disappointed with either choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmer Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Cool. Thank you for the input. I will probably be getting one before Spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete s. Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 little off the topic but. why do the old garcias 4600 black with red push button command such high prices on ebay? know they last forever but, the light cast is a much better reel. pete s.

fatfingers Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I bought a Record last year. One of the two best reels I've ever owned and I've owned a bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
