Okuma Coronado CD50, any problems? - scottie - 10-07-2001
Does anyone have any experience with the Okuma Coronado CD-50?<br><br>I have been using Shimano's Baitrunner 4500 and 6500 and these are great reels, but the Okumas have been recommended as an equivalent and just as robust alternative.<br><br>The price is certainly attractive.<br><br>Anyone with experience care to comment?<br><br>Work is the space between fishing.

Welcome Scottie<br><br>I cannot comment personally on the Coronado. Have you used one at all or just looking at this stage? <br><br>Might pay to post a note down on the California board and up at Capt. Dan's board as well to cover your bases. If find from a board other than this one then drop back in and let us know what the "word" is ok. <br><br>Burnin Thumbs!<br><br>Steve B <br>Moderator Lures/Baits Forum<br><A HREF="http://www.demonjigs.com" target="_new">http://www.demonjigs.com</A>

Scottie<br>The shimanos are the best there is, I run several also.<br>If youve already got some ,why change?<br><br>

Thanks fellas,<br><br>I haven't used the Okuma, but if I get more information I'll post.<br><br>My thinking was that since the spare spools on the Shimano's run to about $30 odd and the Okuma's cost about $60, well you can see my drift.<br><br>The only experience I've had with Okuma's is a buddy who owns an Okuma Azul 90, he's had no problems and swears by it, but I've got to say he lusts after the Shimano 6500 though.<br><br>Tight lines<br><br>Scottie<br><br>Work is the space between fishing.
