Okuma Avenger ABF

Okuma Avenger ABF is a finest reels I have bought in recent years. I was impressed with the smooth action and sturdy craftmanship. I was afraid the reel might be to small for the Snook, Redfish, and Trout we regulary fish, but after seeing the reel firsthand I have no fear and I would even use it for tarpon. Another great feature is the fact the reel only weighs 16 ounces, but it is definately built strong. The baitrunner switch is an awesome feature that allows for me to set his pole down without fear of losing it to a big hit. The feature works by freeing the spool, but it still has enough tension to tighten the line and it is adjustable.


The other nice thing is that Okuma Avenger ABF clicks as the line goes out, so you hear the fish testing out your bait before the big hit. This feature is a definite plus if you do any bridge, beach, or pier fishing. We will be testing it out again this weekend at Matlacha Pass and I am hoping that my Okuma Avenger ABF comes in before then. I would definately reccomend this reel to anyone fishing saltwater or even fresh water.
