That is what I am replacing all my Okumas with. It has a faster retrieve than the Okumas and the counter part is part of the frame and seems to work better than Okuma. Okums seem to stick and not count at times but the Diawas havent failed me yet to count. Better Quality unit.:D

I would be interested in buying two of those Okumas Maj if you want to sell them...I think Hook One would be interest in two also. Send me a Pm if you decide to go that route. Heck We may buy all six.

The Okumas are fine starter reels. I figure if I'm gonna fish this way year after year, may as well buy something a bit better.

I like your plan Feelay. No reason to ditch a perfectly good working reel.

May all of you fall in your crankbait pile naked.

I buy some Okumas and now I need Daiwas.

I have 5 Okumas and 1 Diawa..bought the 1 Diawa last year to see the difference and it has been nothing but trouble.the line release button sticks and the spool control never gets free as Okumas but as with cars I may have just gotten a lemon..
