Bait feeding spinning reels lend tremendous function to anglers. And this is not just in saltwater fisheries where bait feeding spinning reels allow live baits to swim uninhibited. Use of bait feeders is expanding dramatically in freshwater applications also, in fisheries like trout and catfish, where it€s to the angler€s advantage to ensure fish have a solid hold of baits before setting the hook. The venerable Okuma Avenger ABF spinning reels have undergone numerous upgrades to form and function in this refined and advanced selection. Okuma's bait feeding system allows anglers to disengage their spinning reel spool and allow their bait to run freely. The bait feeding system incorporates a secondary micro-adjustable drag system at the rear of the reel that allows for precise adjustment of the spool for bait control. In order to disengage this system simply turn the handle. The On/Off lever on the rear of the reel will automatically disengage the bait feeding system so you can fight your fish with the main drag system.
- ON/OFF BAITFEEDING SYSTEM - disengages the spinning reel spool and allow their bait to run freely. The On/Off lever on the rear of the reel will automatically disengage the bait-feeding system so you can fight your fish with the main drag system.
- INCREASE YOUR HOOKUP RATIO – Quick Set Anti-Reverse bearing allows instant handle engagement and eliminates handle back play. Engages the reel in one direction for solid hook-sets.
- FIGHTS RUST AND CORROSION – Feature's corrosion-resistant graphite body and rotor design for ultimate longevity.
- MAXIMUM AIRFLOW AND DRYING TIMES – Cyclonic Flow Rotor technology significantly increases air flow through a ported rotor allowing for faster drying times and minimizes corrosion.
- ROTOR EQUALIZING SYSTEM – Incorporates a computer balanced weight in the rotor allowing for precise balance, perfect alignment, and smooth cranking
- On/Off auto trip bait feeding system
- Multi-disc, oiled felt drag system
- 6BB + 1RB bearing drive system
- 1 Quick-set anti-reverse roller bearing
- Precision machine cut brass pinion gear
