My favorite and only reels that I use are the Quantum Big Iron Series......I have the IR430 and two IR330.....these reels have handle plenty of abuse and are still going strong, no problems whatsoever and there about 4-5 years old.

I DONT SEE THE ROCKET ON THE ABU WEBSITE. AND ITS NOT ON BASS PROS WEBSITE AND DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHY THAT IS AND WHERE IS A GOOD PLACE AND CHEAP PLACE TO GET ONE CAUSE I COUDLNT GET IT AT DICKS AND I REALY DONT LIKE BUYING THINGS ONLINE. IF SOMETHING GOS WRONG IT IS SO HARD TO RETURN IT. IF YOU GET SOMETHING FROM DICKS IN MASON THEY DONT ASK QUESTIONS AT ALL. THEY HAVE GOOD RETURN POLICY

Binkdude, you can get the rockets at cast away or cedar lake along with many other places. Bass pro will not carry them for some reason. I think they will run you 129.99 about anywhere you go. I have 2 of the 6500 rockets and love them, 2 6500 C3 along with a 6500 C3 trophy collection reel.

Bass Pro Shops, Dicks, Cabela,s Walmart or any other Chain store are not allowed to carry International reels. Abu Garcia has an International Program that we buy from. They are alot of Abu Reels that most fisherman have not seen or heard of! I DONT SEE THE ROCKET ON THE ABU WEBSITE. AND ITS NOT ON BASS PROS WEBSITE AND DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHY THAT IS AND WHERE IS A GOOD PLACE AND CHEAP PLACE TO GET ONE CAUSE I COUDLNT GET IT AT DICKS AND I REALY DONT LIKE BUYING THINGS ONLINE.

perhaps my favorite reel is my 6500 c4 mag with a power handle on it....SWEET!!!....great casting distance, good clicker, and holds quite a bit of line.....but best of all is its upgraded drag system...pure wenching power!!! dont use anything but abu garcias from 5000c-10000 big game cant go wrong with an abu
