Avet reels are quickly becoming a popular alternative to some of the Tier 1 branded saltwater reels. Born in Chatsworth California these reels come out of a 20,000 square foot machine shop. In 2002 the company released a new lineup of saltwater reels, all of which are machined in and out from billet aluminum stock. One of the main selling features of these reels is their durability and simple dual screw sideplate which makes takedown and maintenance easier than ever.

Their thoughtfully designed planetary gear system also allows for a smaller gear case, lightening the reel and making it a better match for today's lightweight rods. Six stainless steel ball bearings give these reels incredible smoothness and increases casting distance and free spool. An oversized carbon fiber drag system combined with stainless drag plates gives Avet Reels something that no other lever drag reel has-an ultra smooth drag with the ability to free spool at a full drag setting!

With a frame, spool, and side plate fully machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum stock. Avet Reels have incredible strength and corrosion resistance built into their design. A dual screw side plate allows for easy takedown and maintenance. Avet reels are currently offered in a durable type 2 anodizing and are available in silver, gold, metallic gray, and navy blue finishes. Avet reels also come standard with a rod clamp that attaches even when the spool is full of line.

I used his Fish Tamer Hooks over the entire year of 2007 and when I went back to the Miami Boat Show this past January I met up with my friend Marcus once again. I told him that his hooks were awesome, that they had hooked and landed many tournament winners over the past year. I informed him that I was thoroughly impressed with his hooks because that hadn't rusted and they maintained their sharpness, and that I could re-bag rigs and use them over again as long as the wire wasn't kinked. I further let him know that these were the only hooks I wanted to use for offshore slow trolling, kite fishing, and all around live baiting. Marcus then pulled out his newest hooks on the market...he calls them the "Ultra X-bn Stinger Hooks." He gave me a #2 size stinger and had my try to bend it, I couldn't do it! The points on them are extremely sharp and again the prices were right on my budget.

I couldn't believe he was selling a 25-pack of Ultra X-bn Stinger Hooks for only $6.50. That's right $6.50, where in the world can you get a twenty-five pack of stinger hooks for that price? No where that I know. So save some money and fill up your tackle boxes and kits with his hooks. Heck, I bought so many I filled my entire hook box with all assorted sizes I am good for the entire tournament fishing year.
