Rated 3 out of 5Â by Armofisher818 Level wind keeps jamming
I have owned many Abu Garcia reels but this one is a disappointment. The reel is a great reel itself with a smooth drag and all but the level wind on mine keeps getting stuck. When I bought it it was well oiled and I took it out to do some catfish fishing but when I was reeling in a catfish the levelwind kept getting stuck on the right side of the reel and the line was getting piled up as a reeled in so I just used my 7000 that day. So I thought I should lubricate the levelwind and wormgear with the Abu Garcia reel oil and it was fixed ( so I thought) and when I was fishing it got stuck again do right now it's just sitting in my rod rack. I don't know if I did something wrong or if it was a factory defect but Im disappointed with this product. Would've been a great reel if the levelwind was fixed.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by Vader3726 9000i
Needless to say I was very excited when I purchased my 9000i. I have had a bit of a problem casting out, as did 2 of my friends who are good fishermen. The darn thing kept birdnesting on us...finally I decided to switch the type of line and rod length and it seems to be doing better. I'm satisfied!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 sturgeon onthe Columbia River
Using An Abu Garcia Big Game reel I landed numerous strugeon in July on Oregon's Columbia river. Not only does the reel have a very smooth and powerful drag, I was alble to "winch" in a 43 incher that had wrapped itself in the line with three rolls on the first run. It is not an easy task to pull in a sturgeon sideways for 100 yards against an outgoing tide. Upon reaching the boat and grabbing the leader the fish unwrapped itself and made another 100 yard run. The reel performance was excellent . Highly recommend this reel for larger game fish. It withstood two more "keepers" and numerous "Undersize" less tha 41 inchers and will be going chinook fishing very soon. Great reel,smooth drag,tought gears and looks like it will be getting alot of use.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Geno This reel breeds confidence.
I purchased the 7000i HSN to fish specifically for Summer Fluke off of NJ. I have fished it 3 consecutive summers and out of all my bottom fishing reels this is the one that comes with me on every trip. Be forewarned the reel is heavy. But that weight, in this case means strength. It handles dragging 8 to 10 OZ. of lead all day long, brings the fish to the boat with ease, and with a minimum of maintenance is ready for the next trip. I made it a point to inspect the drag washers and removed some excess grease, it has performed flawlessly. A very content fisherman...

I enjoy fishing the surf for Reds, Speckled Trout and Shark on the Texas coast. I'm looking for a casting reel that will give me the most casting distance.Answers

I personally use an 8 foot med heavy graphite rod coupled with an ambassador 6000 c when I am chasing bull reds in the gulf and have even landed a 9 foot hammerhead with this combo.
A:Â
I would say if youre gonna surf cast you can use the Abu Garcia 7000iC3 it can handle 600+ yards of 30lbs braid. With an 8'6" casting rod and 3oz. of weight, I can get over a 110yard cast! Almost any baitcaster will do. But the Abu Garcia is all aluminum and stainless steel. no graphite that can twist and bind and especially no plastic. I have just started using this reel and the first weekend I got this reel I caught over 20 fluke, and 4 to 5 nice blues over 20 lbs and this reel is a WINCH! Pulled that fish like it was 2 lbs. And this reel has a centrifugal brake with minimizes backlash to almost non existent!Answers
A:Â
specs say 20lb. But I know if you tighten up the spool pressure button it should raise it up from that.
A:Â
The drag max for models for 9000i and 10000i is 20 lbs. The drag max for model 7000iHSN is 17 lbs. Thank you!Answers

I prefer a 10-12 foot lamiglass rod with Fuji eyes and reel seat. However your rod choice may be vastly different depending on what you are fishing for. You will want a rod that is capable of handling 8 oz weight and up to 30 lb line.A:Â
On my current set up for boat fishing I have mine mated to a Shimano TRD Trolling rod with plenty of fighting power and have landed 30 lbs fish no issues. When fishing from the surf I use a 10'6" surf rod I forget the manufacturer and with 2oz weight for light surf I can get about a 350'+ cast!A:Â
I use a 12 foot St, Croix Mojo surf rodA:Â
depends on what your fishing for? I use a 6 ft ugly stik muskie rod and 20lb berkley big game for cats and striper above and below my local dam.1 of 1
