A true value from Abu Garcia reels, the low profile, compact Black Max includes a smooth retrieve 4+1 bearing system and 18lbs of max drag to handle the battle when the pressure is on.

Amazing
I have been into baitcasters for awhile now and this is my second one. This real is amazing. The drag system is perfect and the casting is amazing. I have a 12 pound fluorocarbon on it and it has no problem pulling some hog bass out of the brush. It's a recommended reel.
