What is it?
Abu Garcia Abumatic SX
What does it do?
The traditional “push-button” type reels that are easy to use and very durable.
What sets it apart?
The reengineered spincast reels from Abu Garcia are bulletproof, and priced to meet any angler’s budget. With three reels in the family, the S, SX and STX, there is a reel for every fishing application that can be fully relied upon. The new S-Matic Casting Design reduces line damage, and the QuadCam Pickup System quickly picks up line for slackline hooksets and the ultra-smooth drag makes fighting big fish easy. The rugged graphite frame will hold up, even under intense battles with large fish.
How do I use it?
Push the button, load the rod behind your head and let ‘er eat. These reels can be paired up with any kind of casting rod to match the desired fishing application. Each reel comes pre-spooled with Berkely Trilene XL monofilament fishing line.
How much?
$19.99-$39.99

Editor insight:
Whether you’re a young angler, just getting started or require gear that is reliable and very easy to use, the Abumatics are just the ticket. They are tough and can handle the abuse that comes with all types of fishing. Personally, I’ve been able to teach my children the ins and outs of casting for bass, and other species with the Abumatics. They’re an invaluable tool in my house.
