Avet MXJ6/3 Raptor MC Plus 2-Speed Reel

AVET MXJ6/3 Raptor MC Plus is a compact two-speed lever drag reel for anglers who want quick line pickup up top and dependable low-gear power when a hard-running fish digs deep. Its machined aluminum construction, carbon fiber drag system, and MC Plus platform make it a versatile saltwater choice for offshore jigging, bottom fishing, trolling, and casting.

Fast Retrieve When You Need It, Torque When It Matters

The two-speed design lets you move line quickly during a hot run, then shift down for controlled cranking power near the boat or over structure. The narrow MXJ profile keeps the reel comfortable to palm while you work tuna, wahoo, amberjack, and other powerful saltwater species.

Why Choose the MXJ6/3 Raptor MC Plus?

• Two-speed control: Change from fast line pickup to lower-gear power as the fight changes.
• MC aluminum construction: Machined aluminum frame and spool provide a rigid platform for heavy saltwater use.
• Raptor drag performance: The multi-disc carbon fiber drag is built for smooth, consistent pressure.
• Practical retrieve choices: Choose a standard right-hand model or the Silver left-hand configuration.
• Saltwater-ready hardware: Stainless components and sealed bearings support regular offshore use when properly rinsed and maintained.

Built for These Saltwater Situations

Choose this reel for offshore jigging, bottom fishing, trolling, or casting when you need both speed and leverage in one compact conventional reel. It is especially well suited to tuna, wahoo, amberjack, and other hard-fighting saltwater gamefish.

The Right Pick If...

You want a compact Avet reel that can move line quickly during a run but still give you a lower gear for heavy pressure. If you prefer a single-speed setup, compare the Avet G2 MXJ Single Speed Reel.

Tackle Express Tips

• Use high gear to recover line quickly, then shift to low gear before the load becomes difficult to turn.
• Rinse the reel with fresh water after every saltwater trip, then let it dry fully before storage.
• Protect the finish between trips with an Avet Reel Bag, and add an Avet Reel Clamp Kit when your rod setup calls for extra stability.
