OKUMA SOLTERRA SLX TWO SPEED

Okuma

<p><strong>OKUMA Makaira Sea</strong> redefines <strong>big game fishing</strong> standards, embodying the pinnacle of mechanical engineering applied to <strong>multiplier reels</strong> for capturing <strong>large pelagics</strong>. This <strong>lever drag reel</strong> represents the evolution of the legendary Makaira series, specifically enhanced to dominate <strong>oceanic waters</strong> and counter <strong>extreme-sized predators</strong> like <strong>giant tuna</strong>, <strong>marlin</strong>, <strong>sharks</strong>, and <strong>tropical groupers</strong>.</p> <p>The beating heart of the <strong>Makaira Sea</strong> lies in the revolutionary <strong>dual-speed system</strong> with <strong>helical-cut stainless steel gears</strong>, ensuring <strong>lightning-fast</strong> shifting between <strong>high speed</strong> for rapid retrieves and <strong>low speed</strong> for <strong>extreme torque</strong>. Gear changing is as simple as pressing a button or operating a lever, offering tactical versatility during the most intense battles.</p> <p>The <strong>rigid aluminum frame</strong> completely <strong>CNC machined</strong> from a single block represents the maximum of engineering precision, guaranteeing <strong>perfect alignment</strong> and <strong>millimetric tolerances</strong>. This monobloc construction resists extreme pressures and torsions, surpassing any traditional material used in the <strong>trolling reel</strong> industry.</p> <p>The patented <strong>Dual Force Drag system</strong> offers <strong>progressive</strong> and extremely powerful <strong>braking</strong>, strategically mounted on the spool's right side to eliminate frame stress. The <strong>Pull Bar system</strong> maintains all mechanisms in precise alignment, supported by a custom <strong>thrust bearing</strong> that absorbs lateral loads at maximum drag settings.</p> <p>The patented <strong>T-handle</strong> leverages the <strong>natural ergonomics</strong> of hand, wrist, and forearm, maximizing transmitted power while drastically reducing fatigue during prolonged fights. The <strong>silent anti-reverse system</strong> eliminates vibrations and noise, offering a smoothness sensation comparable to a precision timepiece mechanism.</p> <p>The <strong>CRC coating</strong> (Corrosion Resistant Coating) combines the proprietary <strong>HDG-II system</strong> with <strong>Corrosion X HD</strong>, penetrating and bonding to metal for lasting anti-corrosion protection in <strong>extreme marine environments</strong>. Perfect for <strong>charter fishing</strong>, <strong>tournament fishing</strong>, and <strong>expedition fishing</strong> where reliability is non-negotiable.</p> <p>Professional technical specifications:</p> <p>Rigid frame CNC machined aluminum monobloc<br>2-speed system lightning gear shift button/lever<br>Dual Force Drag patented pull-bar system<br>Helical gears precision stainless steel<br>Silent anti-reverse 12-point double tooth</p>

<p><strong>OKUMA Makaira</strong> represents the absolute pinnacle of <strong>lever drag reels</strong> for <strong>big game fishing</strong>, embodying uncompromising excellence in engineering applied to <strong>large pelagic fishing</strong> like <strong>marlin</strong>, <strong>giant tuna</strong>, <strong>swordfish</strong>, and <strong>sharks</strong>. This <strong>professional trolling reel</strong> integrates advanced patents and exclusive technologies that redefine standards of <strong>power</strong>, <strong>durability</strong>, and <strong>precision</strong> in <strong>extreme trolling</strong>.</p> <p>The structural heart of the <strong>Makaira</strong> lies in the <strong>machined rigid frame</strong> in <strong>6061-T6 aluminum</strong> completely machined from a single bar, with <strong>forged side plates</strong> that guarantee absolute precision tolerances and resistance to extreme pressures and torques. The <strong>Type II gold anodization</strong> on frame, spool, and main components ensures superior protection and professional aesthetics.</p> <p>The revolutionary <strong>2-speed gear system</strong> incorporates <strong>two sets of gears</strong> in <strong>17-4 stainless steel</strong> helical cut, allowing instant selection of high-speed ratio for rapid retrieve or low-speed ratio for maximum <strong>power and torque</strong>. The <strong>helical cut gears</strong> guarantee gradual meshing, superior smoothness, and silent operation compared to traditional straight-cut gears.</p> <p>The patented <strong>Dual Force Drag system</strong> in <strong>Carbonite</strong> with Cal universal grease is mounted on the right side of the <strong>spool</strong> around a <strong>Pull Bar</strong> system that keeps all mechanisms in perfect alignment without exerting pressure on the frame. The custom-designed <strong>thrust bearing</strong> relieves lateral load during heavy drag settings, ensuring ultra-smooth modulation even with extreme loads.</p> <p>The proprietary <strong>silent anti-reverse system</strong> with <strong>12-point double dog</strong> completely eliminates noise and vibrations, offering unparalleled smoothness sensation. Anti-reverse hooks open during retrieve allowing frictionless rotation, and lock instantly via crankshaft-activated sliding system when the handle is stopped.</p> <p>The patented <strong>T-Bar handle</strong> exploits natural dynamics of hand, wrist, and forearm, ensuring maximum power with minimum fatigue during prolonged fights. The <strong>Easy Roll graphite insert</strong> completes the superior ergonomics.</p> <p><strong>4-6 Sapporo ABEC-5 precision ball bearings</strong> in stainless steel ensure extreme smoothness, while the <strong>CRC process</strong> (Corrosion Resistant Coating) combines <strong>HDG-II gears</strong> with <strong>Corrosion X HD</strong> coating on all parts, penetrating and bonding to metal for long-term protection.</p> <p>The patented <strong>spool pin system</strong> works perfectly with <strong>braided</strong> or <strong>monofilament</strong> lines, while the <strong>open frame design</strong> (selected models) with <strong>harness and rod clamp system</strong> facilitates maintenance and inspection. Perfect for <strong>offshore trolling</strong>, <strong>IGFA tournaments</strong>, and <strong>stand-up fishing</strong> for world-record billfish.</p> <p>Big game trolling technical specifications:</p> <p>Machined frame 6061-T6 single-bar aluminum<br>2-speed gears 17-4 steel helical cut<br>Dual Force drag Carbonite Pull Bar system<br>Silent anti-reverse 12-point double dog<br>T-Bar handle patented ergonomic maximum power</p>
