I've got two Okuma Epixor reels...one for bobber fishing and the other for my wife. I (we) love them!! Super smooth drag, good casting, overall good reel and value.

I also keep two Okuma Conisseur rods in my boat for guests and for back-up...you can never have too many. I've had a lot of people compliment them. They are plenty strong, decently sensitive, and for the price, who gives a rip if you break one!!
