Abu Garcia Zenon X Baitcasting Reel 6.8:1 Left

Abu Garcia Zenon X — Compact Power for Every Technique

The Zenon X low profile baitcasting reel delivers the lightweight performance of the Zenon MG-X with the durability of a workhorse reel, engineered for anglers who demand versatility from finesse presentations to heavy jigging.

Optimized Weight, Maximum Strength

Built on an X2-Cräftic alloy frame with C6 carbon side plates and an aircraft-grade aluminum main gear, the Zenon X achieves an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. The recessed reel foot and compact bent handle keep the profile ultra-low, while 10 bearings (9 stainless steel HPCR + 1 roller bearing) deliver smooth, reliable performance cast after cast.

Precision Control for Any Bait

The Infini brake system and Infini II spool design provide effortless adjustability, letting you dial in settings for everything from lightweight softbaits to heavy jigs. The Carbon Matrix drag system offers consistent stopping power up to 6.8 kg, backed by a clicker for added control during the fight. Flat EVA knobs and a Ti-coated line guide complete the refined package, with a convenient lube port for easy maintenance.
