avet sx - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

blackcloud9 · 06-04-2010, 07:42 PM

As far as the SX, mine has caught BSBs and 20 lb yellowtail no problem. I
would rather hook the bigger fish on the MX though.

The 3 Avets I have had for years on the kayak - an SX, an
MXJ and an MXJ 2speed. They stay high and dry in my baittank rod
holders and I have never "maintained" them myself except taking them
in to a shop one time for thorough cleaning. I think they are great.

My reels get splashed at worst, and I would never try to get
salt-water "out" with fresh water. I rinse the outsides very lightly
and never spray water into the reel. That works for me.
