I am looking for something to team with a Lamiglass stick for throwing small bucktails and cranks in the spring. I like the low profile for this application. Thoughts?

Would you be looking for a right or left side crank?

I dont know anything at all about the saltwater revo but if your looking for low profile to handle musky work i would look at the shimano curado 300 dsv.That reel is totally awsome,i run two of them and couldnt be happier,awsome reels worth a look,i dont think you would be dissapointed.

Each of my reels crank with my left hand! No reason to change. My son directed me to Revos. Thanks for the Shimano tip.

The Abu Revo and the Shimano Curado 300 DSV are both awesome high speed reels and will both hold their own throwing 'tails. You can actually do a pretty good job cranking in DCGs with the shimano too. The main difference is that the revo, I think, is a higher gear ratio, but other than that I thought they were both smooth and worked well.

Does anyone know if the saltwater revos are larger than their freshwater version? The freshwater version has a line capacity of 140yds. of 12lb. line. Or are they just made with anti-corrosion parts. I checked the abu wes site but no specs. on the new revos yet. I'm hoping they are as large as the Shimano 300's. Kdawg
