Okuma Electron Front Drag Reel

The body of the reel, its rotor, and both its main and spare spools are constructed from graphite. Graphite is an incredibly popular construction material on reels at a variety of price points and it is favoured by manufacturers for its strength and durability, as well as its low weight. Graphite is a derivative of carbon, making it the ideal complement to any carbon rod setup.

The Okuma Electron FD is a front drag reel. Front drag has quickly become the favoured drag system for many anglers, thanks to the ease with which you can adjust the drag whilst you’re playing a fish. The drag system on the Okuma Electron FD is incredibly smooth, especially for a reel at this price point, once again making it the ideal reel for a first time angler who is looking to grow their skills on the bank.

The Okuma Electron FD also comes supplied with its own line. This is another of the Okuma Electron FD’s features that makes it ideally suited to entry level anglers, as it can sometimes be difficult to pick the right line to match your reel and rod setup. The line supplied with the Okuma Electron FD is the ideal starting point for any angler who is looking to improve their angling abilities.

Not only is the Okuma Electron FD the ideal reel for the novice angler, but it is also a great choice of spare reel for the more experienced angler as the Okuma name is synonymous with reliability.
