Avet Saltwater Fishing Reels

Avet Saltwater Fishing Reels

When anglers want to get serious about catching fish, they count on Avet for a cast and retrieve that can't be beaten. Avet Reels are known for their smooth and powerful drag systems that give you the upper hand during a retrieve. Each Avet fishing reel is precision-machined in the U.S. using marine-grade anodized aluminum and stainless steel stock. This construction gives their reels an unmatched combination of strength and corrosion resistance with dazzling finishes so you can fish in style, too.

Avet has been a leader in fishing reel design and performance since their first products debuted in 2002 at the annual Fred Hall fishing tackle shows. The premium construction isn’t a surprise when you consider the company’s origins. Harry Alajayjyan was an aerospace parts engineer and pilot who also happened to be a diehard angler. He put the same engineering knowledge and precision from his day job into designing reels that could take on big fish and tough waters. Together, Harry and his brother Sarkis formed Avet Reels to market those designs, and the rest is history.

The Toughest Fishing Reels

We carry dozens of Avet saltwater reels for trolling, baitcasting, surf fishing and other techniques. These saltwater reels are the first choice of offshore sports fishermen and big game tournament anglers around the world.

All their reels, from the single-speed Avet LX reel series to the Avet HWX 3-Speed Raptor, use cutting-edge angling technology they pioneered in many cases. The inclusion of six stainless steel ball bearings gives Avet fishing reels incredible smoothness plus increased casting distance and free spool. The Avedrag Dry Drag oversized carbon fiber drag system is combined with a stainless steel drag plate (titanium drag plate on EX models). This gives Avet reels something that no other lever drag reel has: an ultra-smooth drag with the ability to free spool at a full drag setting!

This is only the beginning of how an Avet saltwater reel turns up the intensity on the ocean or by the bay. With a frame, spool and side plate fully machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum stock, Avet Reels have incredible strength and corrosion resistance. A dual screw side plate allows for easy take-down and maintenance. They contain no small parts that might disappear during the cleaning process, so you know it'll work when you finish. Avet reels have a durable type-2 anodized finish and come standard with a rod clamp (except the SX model).

When you buy an Avet reel, you’re getting one that sets the benchmark for performance and durability. Avet was the first reel maker in the industry to offer the two-speed lever drag casting reel. These have a push button to easily shift between high and low gears even while cranking or when a fish is running. Their standard single-speed casting reels feature an adjustable pre-set lever drag system that provides surprising power. With a frame, spool and side plate fully machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum stock, Avet Reels have incredible strength and corrosion resistance. There’s a reason Avet calls their reels “the ultimate fishing reel” — that’s exactly how they’ve been designed and constructed.
