Okuma has been making steady strides in the long cast surf fishing market. The all-new Flite Surf is nothing short of the brand’s commitment to set a new standard for long cast spinning surf fishing reels.
One of the key features of the Flite Surf spinning reel is its lightweight and corrosion-resistant C-40X body, side plate, and rotor. This design ensures that the reel is both strong and durable, making it perfect for use in the harshest surf environments. In addition, the Flite Surf spinning reel features a Flite Drive system that increases gear stability and smoothness, providing a seamless fishing experience. The reel also features a multi-disk Carbonite and stainless-steel drag washer system, which delivers consistent and powerful drag performance. Get ready to tackle even the toughest fish with Flite Surf delivering an impressive maximum drag pressure of up to 40 lbs for unmatched fish-fighting power.
The Flite Surf Spinning Reel features a high-performance 9HPB+1RB corrosion-resistant bearing system and a quick-set anti-reverse roller bearing, ensuring a smooth and effortless experience from the edge of the water. The A7075 aluminum main shaft design reduces weight, while the machined aluminum screw-in handle design ensures maximum comfort. The Flite Surf is also equipped HDG-II high-density gearing with a machine-cut brass pinion gear, a worm shaft transmission with 35mm super slow oscillation for increased line lay, and a lightweight, machined aluminum, long cast spool design. The one-piece bail wire design with DLC coating and rotor brake design further enhances long casts, while the RESII computer-balanced Rotor Equalizing System ensures that the reel is perfectly balanced.
To provide maximum comfort, the Flite Surf spinning reel features lightweight, T-shaped TPE handle knobs. This ensures that anglers can fish for longer periods of time without experiencing hand fatigue. The 4.3:1 gear ratio brings in 40.6” of line with each turn of the handle. Currently with one model, this 12000 size reel packs on 835 yards of 12-pound monofilament line.
Proposition 65 is a California law that applies to companies selling products in California. Proposition 65 requires warnings if a product contains any listed chemical present above very low levels. Proposition 65’s warning standards are among the most stringent in the world. Proposition 65 is not a product safety law, but rather a "right-to-know" law. Businesses are required to provide warnings to comply with Proposition 65.
There are over 800 chemicals on the Proposition 65 list, which is administered by California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), a part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The list includes naturally occurring and man-made chemicals. Proposition 65 warnings can be seen for a wide variety of everyday consumer products, including electronic equipment, and warnings can be seen posted throughout California in a variety of establishments such as buildings, hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, and stores.
Why do you see the warning on our packaging and website?
The warning is part of our ongoing effort to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (known as "Proposition 65").
