Proven Single-Speed Power for Offshore Work The Avet G2 MXL Single Speed Lever Drag Reels are built for anglers who want dependable offshore performance without the complexity of a multi-speed drivetrain. The MXL platform pairs a comfortable, compact profile with precision-machined 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, a lever drag system, stainless steel components, sealed bearings, and Avet&';s enhanced G2 design. Choose the straightforward single-speed setup when you want to focus on the fight rather than shifting gears. The current lineup includes MC and no-MC configurations, glide-plate options, right-hand models, and a left-hand Silver model. Every reel is manufactured in the USA. When Simplicity Is the Advantage Two-speed reels are incredibly versatile, but not every angler needs another control to manage during a hard fight. The G2 MXL Single Speed keeps the setup focused: set your lever drag, choose your retrieve, and rely on a proven gear train while you stay connected to the fish. It is a strong fit for offshore anglers targeting tuna, marlin, wahoo, dorado, grouper, amberjack, and other powerful gamefish. MC or No-MC, Glide Plate or No Glide Plate The available configurations let you match the reel to how you fish. MC models add magnetic cast-control adjustment for spool management, while no-MC models keep the casting system simpler. Glide-plate models add a useful visual and tactile reference around the lever, while the no-glide-plate option keeps the configuration more minimal. The Right Pick If...
