Quick take

A compact spinning reel with asymmetric design, V-Rotor, and V-Spool for lightweight performance and smooth operation.

This is the size 2000 Max SX, a compact spinning reel with an asymmetric carbon frame and rotor. It runs a 5.2:1 gear ratio, picks up about 25 inches of line per crank turn and has a 6.5 lb max drag. The braid-ready aluminum spool lets you tie braid straight on, which suits light-line finesse fishing for panfish, trout and bass.

Best for

  • Lightweight freshwater and inshore saltwater
  • Anglers preferring compact reel designs
  • Braided line applications

Skip if

  • You need a reel for heavy saltwater
  • You fish large saltwater species

Strengths

  • Asymmetric design keeps weight and inertia low
  • Roller bearing system ensures smooth rotation
  • V-Rotor and spool design reduce startup inertia

Trade-offs

  • Max 6.5 lb drag limits use for large fish
  • Compact spool means reduced line capacity
  • Graphite frame not as robust as full metal in rough handling
