Once set, there is a secondary adjustment to fine tune the braking system via an external dial on the non-handle sideplate. IVCB-6L brakes power the Premier's casting performance It is a very easy, yet delicate adjustment. This is a centrifugal based brake system with six flying brake arms that a can be individually adjusted to be on or off by simply pressing them into the spool or flipping them out. Spooled with some green, Sunline Sniper FCĬasting : The Premier is outfitted with Abu Garcia's IVCB-6L brake system. I spooled the Premier with some twelve pound Sunline Sniper Fluorocarbon in green and brought it along on a few test trips this past Spring. The black and gold highlights of this rod are a perfect match for the new Premier. Digging through my collection, I uncovered my trusty Daiwa Tatula TAT721HFB. I had to find a stick that would properly reflect the sophistication of this reel. The color scheme on this reel is special enough to where I couldn't just put it on any old fishing rod. It also comes standard with this 90mm carbon handle It's not overstated or garish, nor is it super obvious that this is a flagship model. The Premier features a glossy, semi-metallic black finish with gold highlights and comes with a very attractive, swept carbon handle capped off with contoured EVA foam knobs.

Additionally, the IVCB-IV system allows anglers to cast extremely lightweight baits, something other baitcaster reels struggle with.I have a running sort of joke with my daughter whenever we encounter a restaurant, item of clothing, or situation that's more embellished than the norm, I say the word "fauncy." I don't recall from where it emanated, but it's simply a slapstick attempt at embellishing the word "fancy" for emphasis. With 28 positions of external adjustment, the one of a kind design allows fine tuning on the water without removing the sideplate. The brake system has been upgraded to the Infinitely Variable Centrifugal Brake (IVCB-IV™), the same top of the line brake system used in the Revo MGX for precise control, whether casting heavy jigs or lightweight finesse baits. A total of 10 High Performance Corrosion Resistant (HPCR®) bearings and one roller bearing provide smooth performance and advanced corrosion protection. The improved D2 Gear System is the next generation in Duragear™ design and provides better efficiency than previous models. The new wider Infini II™ spool design further improves casting performance without increasing the overall width of the reel.Īn upgraded X2- Cräftic™ alloy frame provides more advanced corrosion protection and the sideplates are constructed from weight reducing C6 Carbon. The new Revo® Premier features a lighter, more compact design that crosses the sub 6-ounce barrier by utilizing advanced materials including C6 Carbon sideplates and an upgraded carbon fiber handle with comfortable EVA knobs.
