The Max Elite Spinning Reel delivers unparalleled performance in a lightweight package. Inspired by the Revo® and Zenon™ series of spinning reels, the Max Elite features an incredibly compact and lightweight asymmetric C6 carbon frame design. Smooth and reliable performance is driven by a CNC Machined Gear System and 9+1 stainless steel bearings. A smooth Carbon Matrix drag system provides consistent performance while the Rocket Line Management™ system ensures superior line management.

  • 9 stainless steel ball bearings + 1 roller bearing provides smooth operation
  • A-Symmetric Carbon Frame and Rotor provides a lightweight and compact platform
  • AMG 2 gearing system provides precision machined gears for unparalled smoothness and durability
  • V-Rotor system allows for a more compact, weight reducing rotor design and provides ultra-low start up inertia
  • V-Spool Design for a more compact, lighter weight spool
  • Carbon Matrix™ drag system provides smooth, consistent drag pressure across the entire drag range
  • Rocket Line Management™ system provides better control of all types of fishing lines
  • Rocket Spool Lip Design™ allows better control of line coming off the spool
  • Machined aluminum braid ready spool allows braid to be tied directly to the spool without any slip
  • Tubular Carbon Fiber handle with soft touch handle knob

    Amazing Spinning Reel

    I have several spinning reals from other brands and this is my first Abu Garcia one. I would have to say this ia my favorite spinning real, by a lot.

    Abu Garcia MAXELITESP3000H Spinning Reel

    This reel was purchased in December of 2025.

    I plan of putting it through it's paces in the 2026 season.

    It was cycled and spun around and it performed smoothly.

    My biggest gripe with Abu Garcia Reel is that they never include a manual and schematic with their reels.

    The last Abu Garcia Reel that I purchased that contained a manual/schematic was an ORRA S30.

    I own ORRA, REVO, ZATA & MAX X Reels. Sometimes you can download Abu Garcia documents from the web. For this MAXELITE & the MAX X I could not.

    Would it be too much to ask of ABU GARCIA to include this documentation?

    Incredible Performance and Value

    For the price, the quality is unbeatable—this reel easily competes with higher-end models. Definitely picking up another one for my backup setup. Highly recommend!

    Smooth retreive, easy to get line in the gears.

    This reel feels great, it's smooth and light and really nice to both cast and retrieve.

    My main issue is that the line is super easy to get caught UNDER the spool and into the gears. Within the first week I had to take the reel apart and cut out thick lines wrapped around the internal workings.

    I removed some additional line while cleaning out the gears, but I would expect the gears to be a bit more protected from rookie mistakes.
