Okuma, a renowned leader in the fishing tackle industry, is proud to unveil the all-new X-Series Low-Profile baitcast reel.
Crafted with a diecast aluminum frame, the all-new X-Series baitcast reel ensures maximum rigidity and performance on the water. Its C-40X carbon injected sideplates not only reduce weight but also enhance the reel’s overall strength, resulting in a lightweight 5.6-ounce reel design that doesn’t compromise on durability.
Equipped with an aluminum main and brass pinion gear, the X-Series delivers tournament-grade performance and a tournament feel, providing anglers with the confidence to tackle any fishing challenge with ease. The Carbonite drag system boasts an impressive 24-lbs maximum drag output and features a micro-click drag star and spool tension knob for precise stopping power.
Featuring a machined aluminum, ported spool for reduced weight and enhanced casting performance, the X-Series baitcast reel offers precision and control like never before. The Quick-Set anti-reverse roller bearing provides instant hooksets and eliminates back play, giving anglers the edge in landing their next personal best.
Designed with versatility in mind, the X-Series baitcast reel is equipped with a Velocity Control System with 18 adjustable positions and allows anglers to fine-tune their casting for optimal performance. The hinged palm sideplate provides easy access to Velocity Cast control, while the 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”.
The X-Series baitcast reel also features an oversized carbon fiber handle measuring 100mm in length, providing anglers with maximum cranking power for effortless retrieves. Additionally, a built-in line clip on the front of the gear box ensures convenient storage and easy access to your fishing line, enhancing overall efficiency.
Available in a 100 size in both left- and right-hand retrieve, the X-Series Baitcast Reel features 7.3:1 and high-speed 8.1:1 gear ratios, offering versatility and performance for anglers. Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, the X-Series Baitcast Reel is priced competitively at $269.99.
