I still got me old 506, brought it in 1974, she still works as good as new.
great job thanks, i now understand how to set up my new 506, cheers Ian
I bought an Abu 1044 many years ago and it's great. I still have it :-)
Got original 506 . Like the look of the features on this one
I use an old 1044... fantastic bit of kit.. although it got a bit tiring this weekend playing a 12lb carp for near on an hour!...2lb line and a whippy waggler rod
Great video, great reel, great angler.
Good job the bigest reels & rods from USA 😃😃
Still have my original ABU 505 and its like new. It will see me out!
Hello James. thank you for the video because i was looking over the web for some guidance about a abu 506 that i have gotten but did not know how to use ore setup such a closed face reel.
maybe it would be a good thing if you would make some kind of video that explains using a Abu and how to setup the spool with new line etc because the only manual i found was not readable at all.
but again thank you, i now already know with your video how to setup the line and cast it out ;-)
I have this reel. It's the best reel I have . Great for flowing water work, so smooth and easy line pull off. I use it for most of my fishing.
Ive the Dave Plowman 507 conversion,like the Rolls Royce of closed faced reels.
Hi, this is amazing. I used to do a hell of a lot of match river fishing. My preferred weapon of choice to do it well as a real (100%) was the closed faced ABU with out a question ever!!! I am just about to go back into it and will be using the latest ABU closed faced real as my first weapon of choice!!!

Ahh, well ... nevermind.
I love using closed face reels - currently a 704. But it's about time someone designed one properly instead of just making a few tweaks - although some of those seen here are sensible. The problem with my earlier version of this reel is the useless "half drag" mode. This is engaged (accidentally most of the time) by back winding a fraction of a turn (anti-reverse engaged). It's supposed to return to the full drag value as soon as you begin winding forward again: frequently this doesn't happen, allowing a decent fish to strip line effortlessly. I have dis-assembled and re-assembled the reel several times without managing to cure it.
I have a couple of near mint 505s (which I don't use) and a non-functional 507 "Gold match edition" too. The latter, which I was given as a broken unit, has a larger diameter spool, which is a shortcoming of the other versions - its extra size and weight is insignificant but there seems to be no anti-reverse. I'm also curious to know if the current Daiwa version is any good.
A new closed face will be released in September and we are certain you will be delighted with it!!! keep a look out for a video over at shakespearefishingtv channel on utube.
Love the 706 !! Always gave used the closed face abus however the synchro backwind doesn't work ! The handle doesn't move back at all and the reel is brand new never used?
mufcca
How do you cast using the reel where do you place your finger.
Hi John, want to buy a closed face as have not used one for some time now. Is the mk2 506 or 507 ok? which one would you go for? assuming the 706 is an old model now or can you still purchase it?
@bean74carp Hi mate..James here...sorry you were not impressed with this reel. If you want to get in touch with me directly I can maybe help sort out any specific problems, just in case it is a faulty unit, because the majority of buyers have been delighted.
SIR,
where can I buy one of those reels, USA
Just brought a new Abu 507 mk11 how do you spool the reel the spool just goes up and down it doesn't turn
I had this problem with my new 507. Took it back to shop and they just removes the excess grease from the bale mechanism and it's fine now.
I'd like to see, and buy, a heavy duty model, for catfishing. A large model holding 60 yards of 25 lb. line.
What pound test line can you use on that reel.
.18mm line is 4-5 lb its designed really for silver fish and up to about 6-8 lb
Beautiful !!!! have to have a slingshot to cast now there's a selling point!
Bwaahahahaaaa
