Avet MXL 5.8 Star Drag Conventional Reels
A step up in size from the SX series and wider than then MXJ, the new MXL Star Drag is Avet's long-awaited entrance into the realm star drags—and the wait was well worth it! All Avet Reels are precision machined out of 6061 T-6 marine grade aluminum and stainless steel components and anodized for superior corrosion resistance and beautiful finish. The reels feature a true one piece frame for the ultimate in strength relative to weight as well as a powerful lever drag system with adjustable strike pre-set. Internally, the reels feature precision machined stainless steel gears and Avet's patented, indestructible, silent dog and gear anti-reverse system. The reels are also built with Avedrag dry carbon fiber drags for superior stopping power, smoothness, and wear resistance and 8 related stainless steel ball bearings. The handle arm is offset to reduce center-line profile and cranking wobble and a large comfortable soft touch handle knob. All reels feature an alarm clicker and are made in the USA. The Magic Cast system is best utilized for people who plan to cast the reel, as the system adds magnets to the interior of the reel lowering the inertia of the spool during the cast decreasing the chance of a birds nest.
***Please note, adding the Magic Cast feature increases the price of the reel by $40***
