The Okuma Flite Surf casting reel is an innovation in the world of long-distance surf casting, blending extreme lightness with stunning drag power (18 kg/39.7 lbs). Designed for the angler aiming for professional-level casting, this reel features a long-stroke spool and super slow oscillation to reduce friction and maximize distance.
The secret to its light weight is the C-40X carbon frame, side plates, and rotor, paired with an ultralight spool (only 70g in the 1500 size) and an A7075 aluminum shaft. This combination creates a corrosion-resistant (thanks also to the CFR - Cyclonic Flow Rotor) yet incredibly lightweight reel.
Casting performance is optimized by the one-piece bail (seamless design) for unobstructed line entry into the line roller, and an Even Flow Roller (EFR II) with a special DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. This coating drastically reduces line friction and prevents wear. Internally, the innovative FLITE™ Unit hollows out the pinion to reduce friction with the main shaft, ensuring an unbelievably light rotation.
Power is managed by the Carbonite drag system, which disperses heat evenly, delivering fast progressive drag and pure fish-stopping power. The reel is completed by the ultralight screw-in handle, corrosion-resistant HPB bearings, and two extra spools included (one 8000 aluminum and one 3000 POM).
