Okuma may be about as good a bang for the buck I have used. And it is not unusual to find them discounted. Okuma seems to much more popular along the west coast, based on what I've seen online.
Anyone have experience with their spinning reels? Looking at picking up a couple Epixors or ITXs to go on the DTR rods I bought

Buddy of mine has one. He likes it better than my cheaper pflueger president.
I own 6 of their low profile line counter bait casters. Great value for the buck.
Okuma rods are everywhere around my parts. I own 8 of their rods.
Up until covid, dealing with their warranty dept was quick and easy. Like everyone else currently it's a pain. Which sucks because I snapped 1 tip last weekend and I really need a replacement so I'm not switching the gear on another rod twice a day coming up for salmon.

I went lower end years ago with a Coronado CDX-65 ABF (baitfeeder) to use for surf fishing. Think I bought it 15 years ago. Still performs almost like new. All I do is rinse it off really well and spray it with real magic after I use it. Probably one of my best purchases ever.
Also bought a smaller Stinson for freshwater. I would say their spinning gear is great. If I could find another stinson I would buy it.
I also have a Longitude surf rod for my baitcaster. I would really like to get one for my spinning reel as well to replace.

Anyone have experience with their spinning reels?I have two. Better than some, but both Daiwa and Shimano are better at the two levels I have. I actually prefer Cadence to Okuma.
