Okuma Ceymar Spinning Reel Product Review

This spinning reel from Okuma is a great budget pick and delivers great value for the low cost. It has a powerful, multi-disc drag system which is more intricate than almost any other reels at this price point. If you want to learn the basics of drag adjustability but don’t want to invest heavily in the top-of-the-line reel just yet, this is a good option to get started on.

The corrosion-resistant body design means that this reel can be used in saltwater and you shouldn’t see its effectiveness or efficiency wane much from heavy use. Although, we should acknowledge that the reel doesn’t seem to be sealed, so saltwater or debris could theoretically enter the reel and cause problems over time.

For the money, this reel is great. It probably won’t win any awards for being the best ultralight spinning reel, elegant, powerful, or durable, but it should get the job done. And for the price, you really can’t go wrong. It even has a 1-Year warranty from the manufacturer. If you’re looking for a decent ultralight reel to start out on or practice with, this is a great choice.
