Abu Garcia’s new Revo Toro baitcast reel adds the high-capacity spool size found on a round reel. The combination allows the angler to fight and turn a hard-driving and long-running fish from the hookset.
Available in two sizes, the Model 50 has a line capacity of 200 yards of 14-pound monofilament fishing line. The larger Model 60 will hold 250 yards of 14-pound line.
The low profile frame and side plate of the Toro is made of X-Cräftic aluminum alloy. This material is more durable and lighter than regular aluminum and is highly corrosion resistant. The seven High Performance Corrosion Resistant bearings and Duragear brass gears add to the reel’s durability and long life.
With 24-pounds of maximum drag, the Carbon Matrixâ„¢ Drag System is double the strength of similar competitor models. This is particularly important with the hook set on a lake trout, turning a tough snook or keeping a muskie from entering a brush pile.
Both the 10.3-ounce Model 50 and 10.8-ounce Model 60 Toro reels offer a high-speed 6.4:1 gear ratio version (50-HS and 60-HS) and a cranking speed 5.4:1 reel.
The Swedish engineered Revo Toro also features an Infini IIâ„¢ Spool design for the smoothest of operations, six-pin centrifugal break, synchronized level wind, line alarm and is packaged with both an Extended Throw and Paddle Handle. MSRP is $269.99 for the Model 50 and $279.99 for the Model 60.
