Built with Abu Garcia’s traditional Swedish engineering, the REVO is ideal for nearly all freshwater applications, from casting crankbaits or spinnerbaits to pitching and flipping softbaits.

The, new REVO Premier is the ultimate low-profile baitcaster. Packed with innovative features, including a Duragear™ oversized brass main gear for maximum cranking power and the innovative Carbon Matrix™ Drag System for incredible smoothness across all drag settings. The Linear Magnetic Brake™ system gives anglers a wide range of adjustments to fine tune the reel for any application. In addition, the Premier model features an Everslik™ coated pinion shaft and pawl, which dramatically reduces friction for enhanced casting while improving the durability of these components. The Premier also features the innovative Infini Spool II™ system, which is separated from the drive train, minimizes friction for optimal performance – even with the lightest tackle.

Abu Garcia designed the Premier to be as light-weight as possible while keeping in mind performance and lasting durability. To do this they have given the Premier an all aluminum frame and crank side cover. Amazingly, the Revo Premier is over 2 ounces lighter than the Revo STX!
