Abu Garcia Revo LTX notes

Spooling with Berkley Vanish 8lbs is a no-no.
- birdnest almost all the time if magnetic brake setting is more than 2 notch below max.
- cannot cast anything lower than 4g


Spooling with PowerPro 5lbs is a go-go.
- spooled weight is 154g
- magnetic brakes can go as low as 4-5 notches depending on lure weight.
- casting 2.5g is possible, but lack in distance.
- difference in distance is negligible between normal casting and power casting.
- power casting still not recommended although its possible with all the stars align.
- furthest distance achieved using ofmer wander 50, a 3.5g micro lure.
