Columbia, SC – Utilizing key features normally only found in premium high-end reels, the new Abu Garcia Max X spinning reel offers unparalleled performance at a fraction of the price. From targeting smaller trout and panfish, all the way up to catfish and stripers, the Max X is available in a wide range of sizes to handle every angler’s favorite species.

Constructed with Abu Garcia’s renowned lightweight graphite a-symmetric body design, the Max X is fitted with a compact design allowing for a comfortable day on the water. Integrating the V-rotor and V-spool design from the Zenon series of reels gives anglers the same feel in the Max X that they have grown to love in the Abu Garcia family.

“The new Max X incorporates many of the great features that typically only high-end reels offer,” said Director, Brand and Product at Abu Garcia, Andrew Wheeler. “With the inclusion of the V-spool and V-rotor design, the Max X delivers exceptional performance and toughness, making it a top-performing reel at its price point.”

The Max X features an innovative Rocket Line Management system and a Rocket Spool Lip that delivers excellent line control to minimize the risk of wind knots and tangling up. The Max X Spinning reel is also available as a combo that includes a sturdy yet lightweight graphite composite rod with a high-density EVA handle designed for superior sensitivity. At a price of $59.99, the Max X combo offers outstanding value for anglers looking to go catching on a budget.
