| I love the Revo NaCl and am thinking about buying another one. But I am wondering if I should wait for the new Revo that is coming out in September. Does anybody know anything about the new reel coming out? Is it going to be a step up from the NaCl? Any info is appreciated. |

Location: MN | I've held a prototype and heard the rumors. Last time I spoke with anyone affiliated with ABU (Feb) they still didn't know what they were going to do for gear ratio, etc. So we'll have to wait and see, unless someone has more concrete information. |

Location: Waukee, IA | I'm waiting, heard the Revo Toro Beast was designed for muskie fishing. When it comes out I'll decide between that and the new conquest 400 |

| I called Abu to ask them about the new reels coming out. She said there was a Toro Beast coming this fall which I think is the new muskie reel. She said it will have 8 bearings a ratio of 4.9-1 and 6.2-1. Line per handle will be 27 inches and 34 inches. A total of weight of 13.5 oz. The NaCl is 11 oz. She did not have any specifics other than that though. |

that the revo toro beast will be released in 2016, not 2015, has there been a change or was the info posted in the other thread wrong from the start? |
