Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma Avenger ABF Baitfeeder Spinning Reel:
i bought this reel pretty late in the season last year so i didnt get to really use it but once, then this year i havent really went out so much been real busy but what time i have got use it i love it. i like the fact that if i am useing live bait or fishing on bottom all i have to do is flip the abf switch and sit back and relax. I also like how smooth it casts and reels. the only problem that i have had is this last time i went i was fishing off bottom i had the abf switched on and all the sudden something grabbed ahold and took off i could hear the reel whizzing as the fish was running with my line so i reach down flipped the switch off and set the hookand the fight was on. I fought this fish for about ten minutes and all the sudden the handle broke right off i couldnt believe it the reel is still practically brand new. I love everything else about the reel and i would definetly recomend this reel to anyone, the only downfall to this reel is the handle it just doesnt seem as durable as the rest of the reel.

i bought the abf 90 from here about 2 months ago and was very disgusted that it would only hold half the line it was supposed to. i put 300yds of 100lb braid(20lb mono) onto the abf90 and the spool is over full. i dont no where i am supposed to put the other 290yds u guarenteed it would hold. isn't anybody else having this problem? i held like 5lbs of pressure while lining it up.

Own both a 30 and a 40. Love the bait runner option especially on the river fishing for cats or winter fishing on the finger lakes for rainbows.

Great priced reel for the weekend fisherman but it is not for everyday use. I have had issues with the drag as well as the bait feeder multiple times.

Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma Avenger ABF Baitfeeder Spinning Reel:
I frequently fish a deep, glacial lake on the Massachusetts/Rhode Island line, heavily stocked with trout by both states. I drift fish live bait, i.e.- crawlers and minnows near the bottom for large brown trout. The Okuma Baitfeeder is the most sensitive baitfeeder reel I have ever used and it has enabled me to bring more large browns to the boat. Thank you,Okuma, for superior quality at an afordable price!

Comments about Okuma Fishing Tackle Corp. Okuma Avenger ABF Baitfeeder Spinning Reel:
Baitfeeder system is simply awesome. IN the past I've always hated to leave the bail open as line will spool off and tangle in the wind. So I've played with fire and tried to figure out how many turns of my spinning reel's drag wheel I need to go from a real light tension, like in the Okuma's baitfeeder drag mode, to normal fish-fighting drag. These will be the staple of my bait fishing arsenal for my guiding on a ME lake.

I use my ABF for live bait and sand shrimp make your cast and set the lever to activate the bait feed system, as the fish takes off, simple touch of the lever, hook set and your on your way to a fight!!.

This reel does all that I ask it to do. I use it with light line for trout. I use it on long ultra light rods while baiting with power bait and floating night crawlers. The drag is smooth. The bait feeder works especially well with floating crawlers using a carolina type rig. Good stuff!
