I think the reels at walmart are the lowest end of Abu Garcia. I buy my stuff at bass pro or Cedar Lake.

Most reel at walmart are made just for them. They are cheaper and do not hold up. Even Bass Pro shops don't carry a large selection of all the international models that Abu Garcia makes for the Surf Casters in Europe and other countries. I think the reels at walmart are the lowest end of Abu Garcia. I buy my stuff at bass pro or Cedar Lake. |

The one in forest park by bass pro has a decent little selection of abu's and they even come in the legit boxes. they have 5000's to 7000's. I bought a orange 6600 from there last year and its nice, no problems..

i saw the Orange rockets on ebay..they looked like wal~mart 6000
or maybe a 6500 with a Orange paint job..they don't look like a rocket reels at all too me..i think the spool nob is on the left side on a rocket reel...or may be I'm thinking of the pro rocket???
the pro rocket is the only 1 I would want..I have some red 6000s, 6500t carp masters and 7000b green reels..i hope the catfish can't see the carps on the sides of the 6500t carp masters.....LOL....
