ONTARIO, Calif. – Okuma, a leading name in the fishing tackle industry, is excited to introduce the all-new X-Series Low-Profile baitcast reel, designed to elevate anglers’ performance on the water.
Advanced Design and Construction
The X-Series baitcast reel features a robust diecast aluminum frame that ensures maximum rigidity and performance during fishing. Its innovative C-40X carbon-injected sideplates not only reduce the overall weight but also enhance the reel’s strength, resulting in a remarkably lightweight design weighing in at just 5.6 ounces, without compromising durability.
Tournament-Grade Performance
Equipped with an aluminum main gear and brass pinion gear, the X-Series offers tournament-grade performance, providing anglers with the confidence to tackle any fishing challenge. The Carbonite drag system delivers a maximum drag output of 24 lbs and includes a micro-click drag star and spool tension knob, allowing for precise stopping power during critical moments.
Precision and Control
The machined aluminum ported spool is designed to reduce weight while enhancing casting performance, delivering exceptional precision and control. The Quick-Set anti-reverse roller bearing ensures instant hooksets and eliminates back play, giving anglers an edge in landing their next personal best.
Versatility and Customization
The X-Series baitcast reel is designed for versatility, featuring a Velocity Control System with 18 adjustable positions that allow anglers to fine-tune their casting for optimal performance. The hinged palm sideplate provides easy access to the Velocity Cast control, while an adjustable line management system ensures precise line control in any fishing scenario.
“Innovation and craftsmanship make up the X-Series Baitcast Reel, leaving no detail overlooked,” said John Bretza, Director of Product Development at Okuma. “From its lightweight design to its tournament-grade performance, the X-Series low-profile baitcast reel is truly a game-changer.”
Enhanced Ergonomics
The X-Series also boasts an oversized carbon fiber handle measuring 100mm, providing maximum cranking power for effortless retrieves. A built-in line clip on the front of the gear box offers convenient storage and easy access to your fishing line, enhancing overall efficiency.
Specifications and Availability
The X-Series Baitcast Reel is available in a 100 size for both left- and right-hand retrieve options, featuring gear ratios of 7.3:1 and high-speed 8.1:1 for maximum versatility and performance. Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, the X-Series Baitcast Reel is competitively priced at $269.99.
