Avet Pro EXW 50/2 Wide Two Speed Reels

The 50W is a trolling reel, and the frame is the reason. The top crossbar means you never get the feel of line and spool a topless 50 gives you, and the freespool is not what you would flyline with, so it lives in the rod holder. Tuna trolling on an 40XO or XOS; billfish, mahi and wahoo on the ; Okuma are great for it also. In Hawaii it trolls long mono leaders or straight mono at 60-80 lb for the smaller bluewater species, with the 80s taking over for tuna. Only the narrow, topless 50 wears the SDS badge. This is its rod-holder sibling.
