Abu Garcia 6500 lc
Tahoe Topliners was recently outfitted with Abu Garcia 6500 line counter reels to use and abuse on a daily basis under the stress of charter fishing trips at the tune of 250 plus days a year. While we have used and tested Diawa 27 lc, Shimano Bantam lc, Shimano Tekota lc, Okuma lc reels we have found that the accuracy, dependability, and price point put the Abu 6500 lc on an island alone. A great looking tool that can handle the rigors of daily fishing in all climates on a lake where line capacity and durability are tested daily. We encourage anglers to check them out at the retailers and guarantee that you will not be disappointed. Here are the specs!
