Abu Garcia Max 5 Baitcasting Reel 300LP 6.4:1 Left

Abu Garcia Max 5 Low Profile 300 — Built for Big Baits and Trophy Pike

Whether you're casting or trolling oversized lures for monster pike, the Max 5 Low Profile 300 delivers the muscle and control you need. With a rugged Duragear™ brass gear system, smooth magnetic braking, and a long 95 mm aluminum handle with oversized soft-touch knobs, this reel keeps you comfortable even when throwing heavy baits all day.

Unmatched Internal Strength for Big Lures

The Max 5 LP 300 features a reinforced Duragear™ brass gear paired with a Power Stack Carbon Matrix™ drag system that delivers up to 9 kg of stopping power. No lure is too big, no fish too strong—this reel's internal gearing is built to handle the heaviest presentations and hardest-fighting predators without flinching.

All-Day Comfort with Oversized Cranking Power

The 95 mm aluminum handle and extra-large co-molded soft-touch knobs give you superior leverage and grip, reducing fatigue during extended sessions with big baits. The 6.4:1 gear ratio and 64 cm retrieve per turn strike the ideal balance between cranking power and speed, while the MagTrax™ magnetic brake system lets you dial in precise cast control for everything from heavy swimbaits to large crankbaits.
