AZORES XP SPINNING REEL
RIGID LIGHTWEIGHT SALTWATER SPIN REEL
Saltwater stopping power in low and high speed models, the Azores XP range fits the brief for anglers who regularly chase larger, aggressive saltwater species.
Lower geared models (P) are ideal for increased outright cranking power, while high geared models (H) provide the quicker retrieve speeds and line pickup required for different techniques and target species.
High density gearing and machine-cut brass pinion gear roll on high performance, grease-packed stainless bearings for a smooth, precise and solid mechanical system. A hydro-blocked hybrid drag delivers consistent, smooth and powerful resistance against hard-running fish. The machined screw-in handle ensures a positive connection, while the machined large-capacity spool features Okuma's LCS lip for more casting distance and accuracy.
