Maxel hybrid reels review6/20/2023 And you can find them on the bay at a good discount. According to the reviews on the Maxel reel, the 20C produces a max of 13 KG ( +- 25 lb ) ratio 6.1 line capacity of 330 yards of PE 2 on the overseas version. But for the price, the build, and durability, they are really not a bad choice. I know a few people who either returned or sold them for that reason. The BV’s aren’t the smoothest reels (stainless gears) compared to saltigas and trinis, and the Terns are even rougher than them. I think people were expecting BV’s with a star drag and were disappointed when they found out it just wasn’t as good. The Terns are very well made but are a serious drop off from the Boss Valiants. I have a Boss Fury which I like but the lever drag is a PITA trying to slow pitch jig sea bass. Not sure if somethings wrong with them or people just don’t like them. I’ve seen a lot of them used for sale which concerns me considering it just came out. I had a few recommendations to go with the Accurate Tern. Any one actually see if it dishes out 28lbs of drag? It fits around 300m of PE2 braid, and the gear ratio is 6.0. The reel has a classic jigging design but is small, weighing just 378g - yet it boasts a massive 13kg of drag. I’ll probably match it with 30lb Jerry Brown. These Hybrids from MAXEL make a superb Slow Jigging Reel that also has a Magnetic Casting Control.Compact One-Piece Frame with Cold Forged Aluminium Spool. The Reel Having used predominantly low-profile baitcast-type reels for light jigging in the past it was clear to me that this little beauty was definitely a cut above them in both feel and power. Seriously considering it now especially since The Reel Seat is a dealer. The Maxel Hybrid H20C Jigging Reel is the perfect high. I’m hoping to get one and use it primarily for fluke/sea bass/tog with the occasional use on stripers/bluefish. It’s funny I posted on a west coast website as well and got nothing but negative reviews on it. The best features are its star drag and lever release as well as its small size and 13kg of drag.
