Gots me a shiny new Avet G2 5.3 MC on the way! Sure, it was a little more, but at my age, if there's one thing I've learned about quality fishing gear, it's that, "If you can afford it, get it." and "You can't take your money with you." #FishingFashionistaFred

Good for you. Way those things are made,your grandkids can inherit it.
MonkeyFist:
Ohh Fred. I started that way, an Avet SX, then a MX. Now there's a Seigler and an Accurate in the mix. You may have time to stop this addition to lever drag reels, I can't.

Watch out for line looping around the drag lever. I lost a fish when that happened. I like the Avet drags on reels this size.
Fred "True" Trujillo:
The first gen reel is 9 to 14 lb on the drag settings and the Gen 2 models are 13 - 20lb because of the new fancy washers, I think, though I honestly don't know what I'm going to do with the Magnetic Control option... Time to find me a video...
