Abu Garcia® BCX Round Reel

Anti-Distortion Spool stops fish-moving power
5.3:1 gear ratio for tough fish hoisting
Easy to adjust Star Drag

A strong cranking reel is mandatory for wrangling the big fish. This reel features an Anti-Distortion Spool that won't torque under a heavy load with the 5.3:1 gear ratio designed for tough fish hoisting. The quiet Corrotech-treated Instant Anti-Reverse holds firm even when fish don't. Centrifugal brakes offer fish-stopping power. Easy-to-adjust Star Drag. Four smooth-operating stainless steel bearings. Oversized reel handles are easy to grip.

Amazing Reel

Date:April 2, 2012

I use the 6600 reel for big channel catfish. I put the reel on an ugly stik and it is awesome. It handles 20 pounders really well. I f you are looking for a great catfish reel its great. My friend uses the 6600 on his musky rod. It does well there too.

Good Purchase, However....

Date:March 26, 2012

The reel performs well, it has great casting ability (similar to the C3 series), you can change out bearings and other components with ease. These are features found across all Abu Garcia products. But, there is an issue with the gear for the level wind system. On the 6600 specifically, the gear on the spool, the small drive gear strips under heavy stresses. It is easy enough to change but remains the ONLY major drawback to the reel. I think it is a great buy, especially, now in this tough economy. I hope that this can be fixed in future models. This reel represents quality at a time when there is little money for the consumer. Please continue creating and developing great products, in the mean time I'll have to keep changing that darn gear... I keep a couple extras in my tackle box.
