I Catfish the Potomac and James River. I've taken 40 lbs. + trophy catfish with this reel. Been fishing with Abu Garcia for over 35 years I highly recommend this reel for big game fish.

A great item
This is a FAB reel I have used this a lot recently it is a very robust reel .excellent quality .
Good quality and price
Another brilliant reel from Abu ideal for boats or shre
excellent value for money
Definitely good value for money, budget end of the scale multiplier reel. It takes a lot of line, winds beautifully and very smoothly in operation. I can find no fault with it. It is not built for long casting, but does a respectable job fishing from the pier and ideally suited to boat fishing.
I bought this reel as a secondary because I already have an Abu Ambassadeur 6500 CT C3 and it’s performance has been brilliant I’d recommend it to anyone and for 53 you can’t go wrong, looked after properly it should last a lifetime, I’ve owned my CT C3 for 15 years and it’s in the same condition it was when I first opened it’s box.

ALWAYS LOVED THE QUALITY OF ABU. THIS REEL IS AN EXELLENT ALL ROUNDER. CAST.S 150MTRS EFFORTLESS. GREAT ONBOARD AS A BOAT REEL. FAST RETRIEVE. GREAT PRICE
One of the best fishing reels ever made
Fantastic fishing reel. I used it on holiday in Barbados to go sport fishing for Barracuda, Tuna, Mahi Mahi (Dorado) and Kingfish. The reel was able to deal with even the strongest of fish with ease. The reel is robust and can operate perfectly even when salt starts to build up within it. The listed line capacity of this reel seems to be inaccurate as I currently have 210 metres of 45lbs 0.60mm monofilament line from Fladen on my reel. This reel can definitely hold more line than the manufacturer says it can. Overall, this reel is perfect for offshore fishing. It can hold strong enough line and has a strong enough drag to deal with almost any size of fish, with the exception of larger billfish. The seller, Toolville, was also fantastic to deal with.
Very smooth easy to use reel.
Set up to cast uptide and worked well with no problems. Caught both large Tope and bumper hauls of Mackerel on this reel.
Very happy to recommend
Five Stars
Great looking reel, not had a chance to try due to weathe
Brilliant reel
What a reel considering It is for boat fishing it’s also brilliant with off shore casting, took me a while to set it to how I like it now it buzzes of like a dream
I have the reel for several years now and I replaced the bushes with bearings, exchanged the original drag washers with carbonfiber ones and added a security spring for the antireverse. Now the reel is much better following these simple upgrades.
Great reel,I also bought a 7000c recently and as I use 2 rods when beach fishing these are my main reels.Can be used for beach,rough ground or boat fishing.Quality gear. thanks
Great reel, used it for the first time staight ...
Great reel, used it for the first time staight out of the box and it cast was really smooth.just the job.
5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars
vvg indeed a fine quality reel, takes 300m of 50lb braid
This is the 2nd one i have purchased and found the Abu 7000 to be the best reel i have ever had. It is a good all rounder for me and works well for those bigger fish ie cod. This reel is well balanced for the fast retrieval of the beach, and would well recommend this reel to every one 100%
An excellent bit of equipment. smooth, very quiet, and easy to use. Highly recommended.
Bough this for my 12-20lb class boat rod and it certainly partners up well. Smooth action and good retrieval rate. I’ve not played with the knobs etc and am just using it with “factory settings”.
You’ll need to load with some mono first if you are going to use braid.
Come on cod!
Have only been sea fishing a few times over the last couple of years and have been using a cheap rod and reel, haven’t actually used this reel yet but the quality really shows through.
5.0 out of 5 stars great looking reel
looks the business not tried it yet cant wait to get out on the boat and see what it can do
While not bought from Amazon, having used this reel in a few times now out of a kayak and matched with a Penn Rampage 20-30 rod (23.08.13 – now reviewed this rod on Amazon as well), I’ve found the pairing an excellent combination with this Abu being easy to use with a fast wind in and easy set up.
Speaking to a few fishing shop owners, it seems to be a very popular reel which combines some of the top of the range Abu reel technology but using less expensive materials.
I’m hoping to go out and do some wrecking soon and will update then but in shallow water mackerel fishing it has proven to be easy and enjoyable to use.
Recommended.
UPDATE 20.08.13.
Now used a couple of times for wrecking including mid (English) channel wrecking. I did find that as this is a fairly small multiplier, I was winding a lot on the deeper wrecks which is very tiring, but it winds smoothly and generally worked well on the 5-10lb fish we were catching. I think I, and it, might struggle with very large fish in deep water but as an inshore / lightweight reel, it has proved to be excellent. Still recommended.
