    Personally, I've got a revo inshore and it's nice. It has been 4 years since I got it and its been dunked a few times and just sprayed off with water and it's still as smooth as the day I got it. It's pretty pricey but in 4 years of saltwater fishing I've never had a problem with it. With I'm not sure how well the other revo's hold up but I'd be willing to try them myself.
    Yeah, and all the muchachas they call me big pappa, when I throw pesos their way!

      I use the Revo Inshores as well. They are great reels if you take care of them. Castaway300 properly lubed them up the other day and now they are good as new again.

      My only advice to you or anyone that wants a Revo Inshore, buy it on eBay on keep it rubbed down with a little Corrosion X.

            I have 4 Shimano spinners I use now, from a crappie size to a Baitrunner for offshore.

            I have 3 Penn reels in the "to be repaired" box, need drag washer kits etc.

            My "dead reel box" contains Shakespeare, Daiwa, and all kinds of cheapos.

              I have nothing against shimano my fav all time reel is a cu200 I just know that I do not like the current shimano lineup now I have yet to look at the g series reels but the quality of shmano reels has gone down a lot and. I just think there is better out there for about the same or cheaper prices.Also I will be in ftu if I get out of jury duty early tomorrow shopping around and mig be back in as early as Tuesday to buy if I find something I like.

                        I've got a tackle addiction, just bought a used Shimano Scorpion 100mg

                        Seriously, the new revo is the lightest farthest throwing reel I've ever owned
