Okuma vs 200 baitcasting reel
What do you all think of the Okuma vs 200 baitcasting reel.What are some pluses and negatives on it.All I read about it that it backlashes a lot .But all that means it needs more tweeking.I was holding out for the new curado but I found this real on clearance for 80 bucks and its usually 200 bucks give or take depends witch site you look at.But all the help will be apreciated. Thanks,

i have the okuma al 200 i have had ZERO problems with it.. as for back lashing it does how ever take learning the reel out of box. but once ya get it figured out you'll love the reel. smooth, powerful, with a mind blowing drag set up. 90% of the innards are stainless which speaks of a good intercoastal reel back ground. i used it this last summer to work a buzzbait in the pitch dark...
we all know that you can NOT have a backlash fussy reel when fishing buzzbaits in the dark.. was i in the market for an excellent new bait caster okuma will be one of the top choices.. zooker
