Re: Okuma Reels
The slammers are priced at about $130.00?? thats almost twice the cost of the Okuma, which is why I was curious.
I was going to use the baitrunners for chunking bunker for stripers in the fall. They work well for that. I also use conventionals for striper chunking. I've been using abu-garcia 6500's(?) and the frame strength sucks on them. I guess you would say they are "crummy" :P ;D ;D They are a much better flounder/weakfish reel.
I hear ya on the charter specials. They are good solid reels with a lever drag.
Every time I pick up a TLD they feel so cheap to me that i cant accept that it is actually a durable reel. Japaneese engineering!!
