abu garcia alx reel Zenon MG-X Low Profile Baitcast A shielded drag and bearing system protects the ALX from saltwater intrusion while the Durametal body and AMGearing technology gives the reel the power thats required to turn fish away from nasty structure 88: Abu Garcia Revo ALX

Known as The Big Four, these are spinnerbaits, plastic worms, crankbaits and jigs

Whether youre dropshotting, throwing a micro-jig, or flinging a tiny crankbait, this reel is a super-smooth joy to fish and feels rock solid

Its also the bait to use when smallmouths dont show interest in tubes or other bottom-dwelling, jigging methods

The T-Wing System provides excellent line management and is an ingenious little design, although some anglers do prefer an old-school worm drive

Cutting a small hole in the rear end allows water to drain and keep the lure running true to design

It all comes down to making your bait more visible to fish
