The lightweight shallow spool is designed for skipping, pitching and flipping, and the supplier also specifies topwater lures, jerkbaits and twitchbaits with light to medium-sized lures. The externally adjustable IVCB-6 brake lets you adapt casting control to different lures for freshwater predator fishing.
The handle is on the left, so you retrieve with your left hand. Its 8.1:1 ratio brings in 89 cm per turn, allowing quick slack pickup during active lure presentations. Choose this model if you want left-hand retrieve.
Yes. The shallow spool supports lighter braid applications, and the stated braid capacities are 70 m at 0.29 mm, 50 m at 0.36 mm and 35 m at 0.41 mm. Monofilament capacities are 65 m at 0.29 mm, 50 m at 0.32 mm and 35 m at 0.38 mm. Select the diameter with the available line length in mind.

The Abu Garcia REVO5 SX-SS-L is a fifth-generation, low-profile baitcasting reel for freshwater lure fishing. Its lightweight shallow aluminum spool is designed for skipping, pitching and flipping, while the EXD Concept Design supports casting distance. The shallow spool also suits lighter braid and light to medium-sized lures, including topwater lures, jerkbaits and twitchbaits for pike, perch and zander. The supplier also highlights bass fishing around dense cover.
The IVCB-6 centrifugal braking system offers precise external adjustment, letting you fine-tune casting control for different lures. The supplier describes lighter braid applications with lines rated 8–30 lb and diameters of 0.06–0.20 mm. These are application guidelines, not the reel's capacity figures.
This left-hand model has an 8.1:1 gear ratio and retrieves 89 cm of line per handle turn, helping you take up slack quickly between lure movements. It weighs 212 g. The 90 mm bowed aluminum handle has oversized knobs for a secure grip, and instant anti-reverse prevents backward handle rotation. Nine stainless steel ball bearings and one roller bearing support smooth operation.
The Power Stack Carbon Matrix Drag System™ uses carbon-fiber drag components with star adjustment and provides 10 kg of maximum drag. An audible drag clicker signals line being taken. The asymmetrical body gives a compact, ergonomic shape, while the X2-Cräftic™ alloy frame and C6 carbon sideplates combine strength with reduced weight. The Duragear™Gen II gear system is designed for efficient operation and gear durability, useful when retrieving lures and handling fish around cover.
Monofilament capacity is 65 m at 0.29 mm, 50 m at 0.32 mm or 35 m at 0.38 mm. Braid capacity is 70 m at 0.29 mm, 50 m at 0.36 mm or 35 m at 0.41 mm. Choose your line diameter with the corresponding available length in mind. The reel is supplied without line and without a spare spool, so you need to spool it before fishing.
