Reels
The initial feel of this reel will leave many anglers with a sense of instant achievement as if they’ve already landed that fish of a lifetime – simply put we think using the Okuma Epixor is almost considered as cheating! The robust AlumiLite body construction with Okuma’s EOS gearing combine to deliver a reel so strong yet so lightweight – line burners, drag busters & gear smokers have nothing over this design! Nine stainless bearings & a Quick Set anti-reverse bearing ensure the smoothest operation whilst the multi-disk drag system provides an even distribution of drag pressure under any load. A spare G-Tech spool is included with every reel so that changing line weights becomes a breeze! ►► Multi-disk Japanese oiled felt drag washers ►► EDS : “Extra Drag surface” spool design ►► 9 stainless steel ball bearings ►► 1 Quick-Set Anti-Reverse roller bearing ►► Precision machine-cut brass pinion gear ►► Spare G-Tech spool with aluminium lip ►► Rigid forged aluminium handle design ►► Hydro Bloc: Water tight drag seal ►► Patented EOS: Elliptical Oscillation System ►► AlumiLite: Aluminium body construction ►► Oversized Bail Arm ►► Okuma’s Lifetime Guarantee Model

The market demands a hard-hitting high speed spinning reel & Okuma delivers! The Epix Pro is perfect for high speed spinning applications like beach casting for looting Salmon or spinning up busting greenback tailor from your favourite rock ledge. With its 6.3:1 gear ratio high speed jiggers will appreciate the retrieve plus the addition of Okuma’s EDS “Extra Drag System” which provides a 30% greater drag surface to ensure enough grunt can be applied to hold back that marauding Samson or “hoodie” Kingfish from running you in to the reef. The spool is aluminium stainless steel re-enforced & the reel features a machine cut aluminium handle with a soft touch handle knob. Five super smooth sealed ball bearings plus a Quick Set anti-reverse bearing combine with Okuma’s RES II: rotor equalising system to create an outstandingly smooth & efficient operation. Top it all off with a shiny silver / gloss black cosmetic with a few hints of gold and you have one sexy brute of a fish catching weapon! Available in three larger models. ►► 5 sealed ball bearings ►► 1 Quick Set anti-reverse roller bearing ►► RES II: Rotor Equalising System ►► Machine cut aluminium handle ►► Soft touch grip ►► Machine cut brass pinion gear ►► Stainless steel re-enforced aluminium spool ►► EDS: Extra Drag System, 30% extra drag surface ►► Designed with high speed gear ratio ►► Okuma’s Lifetime Guarantee
