Okuma first showed off a prototype of this reel under the Metaloid name. It was supposed to arrive well over a year ago, but was delayed. (Okuma has been busy…) Then the idea came to change the name of the Metaloid series reels, the new conventional reels gained the name Cavalla and the spinning reel which would have been produced finally was, but under the re-branded Cedros series name. Confusing? Not really, just a name change and a couple enhancements to the original prototype shown off 2 years ago. This is a new series for 2020, formally introduced at ICAST 2020. We got an early jump on ’em. All are in stock, all are available for immediate shipping.
Some very solid features, dual anti-reverse – a back up to the standard one way bearing for added security. Bearings and housing made to deal with saltwater’s harsh effects on metal. These are also designed with a MANUAL BAIL. This improves reliability over time, better long term functionality.
Specifically designed for saltwater use, the Cedros spinning reels feature Okuma’s rigid Mag-Alloy Blade Body Design, Dual Force Drag System for extreme stopping power and our proprietary High Density Gearing with a special corrosion resistant coating.
Combine this with a high-speed gear ratio and a customized aluminum handle and you have one of the best saltwater jig fishing reels
on the market.
