Product Information

Full details

The Avid Revolve Spod/Marker Reel is designed for anglers seeking a robust and reliable reel specifically for spodding and marker float applications, offering excellent value. Its key benefit lies in its smooth line lay and casting performance, facilitated by a slow oscillation system and quality ball bearings. A potential consideration is its weight for prolonged manual retrieval, though its primary function is casting.

FAQs

What type of line comes pre-spooled?

The reel comes pre-spooled with 300m of 30lb 8-strand braid.

What is the gear ratio?

The gear ratio is 4.6:1.

How many ball bearings does the reel have?

It is equipped with 5 + 1 stainless steel ball bearings.

Can this reel be used for general carp fishing?

While capable, it is specifically optimized for spodding and marker work due to its drag system and line capacity. For general casting and retrieving, other reels might offer a more balanced performance.

What is the spool capacity?

The spool capacity is 0.25mm/300m.

What is the weight of the reel?

The reel weighs 586g.

Is the drag system adjustable?

Yes, it features a rapid front drag system that allows for quick adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Reel feels stiff during retrieval

Ensure the reel has been rinsed after exposure to sand or dirt. Check for any obstructions around the handle or spool. For persistent stiffness, professional servicing might be required.

Line is not laying evenly

Verify that the reel is mounted correctly on the rod. Check that the line is feeding off the spool correctly and not snagging on anything. The slow oscillation system should handle this, but ensure no external factors are interfering.

Drag system is not functioning smoothly

Ensure the drag is clean and free of debris. If the issue persists, it may require professional attention.

Line clips are difficult to use

Ensure the line is seated correctly within the clips. Avoid forcing the line if it doesn't fit naturally; check for any damage to the clips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The reel comes pre-spooled with 30lb 8-strand braid, making it ready for immediate use. Attach the reel to a suitable spod or marker rod using the reel seat. Ensure the reel is securely fastened.

Compatibility: This reel is designed to fit standard multi-pound test carp and specialist rods. Its spool capacity of 0.25mm/300m is suitable for long-range fishing. It pairs well with rods designed for spodding and marker float work.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, rinse the reel with fresh water after use in saltwater or muddy conditions. Periodically, clean the body and handle with a damp cloth.
