reel match

[johnnyb.]

Good morning gents .I bought myself a couple of 20lb Kensaki rods last year and thought I'd match them up with reels.been looking at ambassadeur 7000 but recomendations would be apreciated.many thanks Johnnyb.

Avets. No questions. They cost a bit more than an Abu but are epic reels.

 

My rack now has 4 Kenzakis and matching Avets. A really nice combo.

 

Buy in the Uk from Rok Max.

All depends on your budget Chris

 

We love the Kensaki range of rods, and started using the 12-20 one when pollack fishing with  an Abu 7000.

 

Like Adam I now use Avets instead of the Abu's,

Mainly due to the smooth lever drag and the faster retrieve.

Had a look at Avets,they really do seem to be a top quality reel and, as with everything a price to match.Which model is best for light inshore and maybe a bit of uptiding.they seem to range from £150 to about  £450.?

Sorry, these ones:

The SX 5.3 reel. You won't be disappointed they are worth every penny.

If you are uptiding you may want to look at the one with casting brakes

Adam, do you use the narrow spool versions?

[Adam F]

Nope just the standard 5.3 SX

Yes, awesome reels, I prefer the MXJ for wrecking and the SX for ground fishing but both a cracking reels. I replaced my Abu's with them 2 years ago, never looked back.
