Abu Garcia
Abu Garcia is a legendary Swedish fishing brand with over a century of heritage, founded in 1921 in Svängsta, Sweden. Originally a precision instrument manufacturer, Abu Garcia pivoted to fishing tackle in the 1940s and revolutionised the industry with the iconic Ambassadeur reel in 1952. Today, Abu Garcia holds a Royal Seal as "Purveyors to the Court of Sweden" — a mark of their unwavering commitment to quality and innovation in reel and rod design.
At Compleat Angler Nedlands, we stock a focused Abu Garcia range covering both reels and rods. Our reel selection includes the Revo 3 SX spinning reel, Revo 3 Winch and Revo 4 Rocket baitcasters, and the cutting-edge VoltIQ Revo SX and Revo X spinning reels. For rods, we carry the Max Elite offshore rod and the popular Veritas range including the PLX Tournament and VRT5 light and estuary rods.
Abu Garcia reels and rods are trusted by Perth anglers for their Swedish-engineered precision, smooth drag systems, and exceptional value. The Revo series delivers performance that punches well above its weight class, making it a popular choice for WA anglers from estuary to offshore.
