Don't get me wrong; I agree that the seat could/should be larger but I don't think that Avet "wronged" anyone.

Thanks Mark.
You said what I was trying to in about 1/4 the space.

I just sold my six avets for various reasons. Major drag issues and a useless hispanic gal representing their customer service. Fuck Avet. Search avet and read albout all of their failures. I'm done with them.

Dude, don't get worked. Bag on anything and fans will disagree. Daiwa, Accurate, Shimano, ...... All brands are represented here, even Okuma and ProGear  . If you post, you might get some crap, you might get called out, but, you might actually learn the solution to your problem. I have thou$and$ invested in them and fish them pretty hard. No, "Out of the ordinary" problems. I've had every brand I've ever bought fail. Chit breaks.

I don't think Avet wronged someone with the undersized reel seat, it's just silly. slap: The 4/0 was replaced by the Pro 30, but it is a little smaller. Still it is a 50-60# reel and should easily fit an Aftco reel seat. My Penn 16 VSX, a 50-60# reel has no such issues. I can put it in a Fuji graphite reel seat or on my Seeker XXH AR..
This reel seat issue has been brought up many times, and not just with the 4/0 but some of the larger reels as well. You shouldn't have to call Avet at this point. It should come ready to go out of the box.
I like Avet, and have been impressed with their reels otherwise. I plan on picking up a HOO-X, if it ever comes out.. and has a proper sized reel seat.. | |

| If you were smarter than the reel, or a rock, you might not have problems with Avets. I'd be willing to bet you have problems with all of your reels, not just Avets. Avets are not the only good reel out there but they are a quality product.
You guys that have problems with Avet customer service must be ass holes on the phone or idiots. Avet customer service has ALWAYS been helpful and friendly to me!
