Experience unmatched strength and precision with Okuma's Machined Rigid Frame (MRF) construction. The one-piece, fully-machined aluminum frame offers superior alignment and tolerances, withstanding more pressure and torque than any other material in the industry. These anodized frames are a key feature on our fly, baitcast, lever drag, and star drag trolling reels.

Durable Spool: A cold-forged, Type-II anodized, machined aluminum spool with a patented spool pin system is compatible with both braided and mono lines.
