Okuma Ceymar HD is a highly popular, budget-friendly "crossover" spinning reel designed for both freshwater and light saltwater predator fishing. Positioned as a power-focused upgrade to the standard Ceymar line, it retails and brings high-end features like a screw-in handle and oversized gearing down to an affordable price point.
Features
HDG-II Gearing System: Features a high-density, oversized drive gear (up to 7%–8% larger than standard gears) paired with a dual-bearing supported machined brass pinion gear to maximize cranking power and durability.
- Gearing Stabilization Design: Keeps internal mechanical components aligned under heavy pressure, smoothing out the retrieve when dragging hard-pulling lures through stiff currents.
- Machined Aluminum Screw-In Handle: Unlike cheaper press-fit handles, the handle threads directly into the drive gear. This drastically reduces back-play and provides a more rigid, solid feel.
- Frictionless Main Shaft: A hollowed-out pinion center minimizes friction against the main shaft, offering an incredibly light, smooth start up when you begin cranking.
- Braided-Line Friendly: The Even Flow Roller System is enhanced with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating to resist the abrasiveness of braided line and reduce line twist.
- Moisture Protection: Built with a corrosion-resistant graphite body alongside a Hydro Block rubber gasket that prevents water from seeping into the multi-disc oiled felt drag stack.
