I hear they are really good reels. If you plan on buying one you might wanna give Crucial Tackle a call to save a lot of money. They are having a Memorial day Sale for three days giving you 20% off. I know they did have one in stock, but you may want to give them a shout Monday to make sure. 903-583-8416

The Skt Revo is sweet, but I wasn't a big fan of the drag on it. I love my revos. Have 4 SX 3 STX and 2 Winches

Big Revo fan here as well. I love my skeet but also find the drag a bit week. I have 2 premiers 2 stxs 1 Skeet and 2 SX love them all but much prefer the premier to all of them. For the money I would get a premier rather than a skeet..

Better buy one quick if you want one. They have been discontinued by Abu Garcia. Most believe that Eagle Claw (Wright/Magill) is launching a line of reels at ICAST

Yeah Southwestern parts got rid of ours quick!
Politicians, baseball players, high-powered corporate CEO's they all seem to eventually let us down. Nature, however, does not. Look to her for inspiration and you will learn the secrets to living a good life. The most Important lesson it would seem is to make sure you spend as much time fishing as anything else.

The Skeet Revo is one of my favorite reels. I have 4 of them and love the over-sized handles.

i have three of them. i love the reels, dont like the drag too much. i fish all revos, and the stx is the best all around reel in my opinion. smooth and a great drag. as far as the handles, i do love the handle on the skeet, but i am in the process of swapping out the handles on my stx.
