Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma VSystem Spinning Reels:

I had used this reel with PowerPro 20lb braid for 7 days about 4 hrs each and it was awesome...best reel I've ever owned. On the 8th day, 3rd cast, the bail locked and could only be retrieved by manually turning the bail. Once freed up, I'd get about 3 cranks and it would lock again. For [$] and 16 bearings, it should stand this simple task. This reel has been sent back to the manufacturer and has been there for about a month. I hope I get it back and that I don't encounter this disappointment a second time. I would not recommend this reel to anyone just yet.

Smooth and balanced. Expect a long life.

Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma VSystem Spinning Reels:

My recently purchased Okuma V-65A has worked great during the spring striper run. As a long time Penn customer, it's way to early to comment on reliability, durability, and availability of parts and service.

Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma VSystem Spinning Reels:

I have the AV15 okuma reel. This reel is small but just right for trout, it will handell fish up to and over 20" easly. I think this reel is an exceptional reel well worth the money, once you try it you will enjoy it.

Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma VSystem Spinning Reels:

own a VS 40 for bass, walleye, and pike. very smooth casting, has a great feel to it, and very reliable. I also have a VS 55. I use this for salmon, steelhead and brown trout. Excellent for long cast, unbelievable drag system, and plenty of power to bring in 20 pound kings.
