Avet SX G2 5.3 Single Speed Reel Silver Reviews
Built tough!

I am a huge fan of Avet reels of which i have many and all are still in great function.
I have had several Shimano's, ABU and Penn. Hands down for salt water ocean fishing such as, jetty for flounder, wreck fishing, deep dropping and OFF shore trolling, there are many models to fit the requirement. I have found this to be the most reliable reel out there for the money.
Tough , durable reel!

I own the AVET SX G2 5.3 MC and Ive used it a few times already and its a very nice reel , easy to use. The MC in the reel makes it very hard to birdnest and its well crafted , shipped perfectly and all! Would recommend for anyone looking to cast Lever Drag!
Teamed up with new trolling rods

I set these up on new 5"6" trolling rods and 80 lb. braid. Can use them for trolling and deep-sea jigging for Cod and Haddock too.
Great reel from Avet

Just got my new SX G2 - better drag for sure. I like the "click plate" very much - eliminates the "guess work" i have with G1 version.

This is my first time using conventional for my trolley rig set up. Im liking it so far. No problems yet. I have the mc with clicker, since im new to it not much I can compare to.

Cant say enough for what you get at this price point. This is a solid reel, i would recommend this for all types of fishing except surf fishing. Sand will be a pain for this reel.
Works Great, But Gears Are Noisy

I have two of these SX5.3 reels that I use for my personal fishing exploits on my charter boat when wreck hopping. Holds enough line to hit bottom down to the deepwater wrecks in 200-ft plus depths. Drag is great, casting is smooth enough, but you need to have an educated thumb. Bottom dropping is flawless. Sometimes free spool isn't as "free" when the drag level is up a bit. Love…

the ratcheting lever for setting the lever drag, it stays where you put it and is a HUGE improvement over the G1 series reels. The one flaw of this reel is the noisy gear box. I have these two SX reels and also a JX and they all have the same problem. Still, made in USA and a great reel for the money. 
Great Reel

I like these new reels a lot, they some how feel more balanced than my raptor reels. So far I have man handled a few mud marlins and small sturgeons and they have performed great. The real test will be with a few over sized dinos.
I like this new reel
