OK Josh, Got to Love it ~ (6:53) pulling in the Big One and a train sounds. Geeezz!!! 😂 I also love your decor, it has that outdoorsie feeling. Can't wait to see a big fish pulling that rod, reel, you in the "new" boat around. Go get um! Good Luck! Stay Well and God Bless ✝

You can’t see it but I got a big smile on my face , the reason , when I went hunting for my new fly reel I had sticker shock ! Then by chance while I was at Gator Jim’s they had a 9 wt Okuma fly reel that was not only vary affordable but the quality was just as good if not better than most of the competitors, I’m sold on their products, I can’t wait to see you arm wrestle a sea monster, do yourself a favor and get a lanyard ( parachute cord and clip) so you don’t do a Chris and let it go for a swim , looking into a Okuma fly rod next ! Action at skyway south , the bite was on , mac’s, pompano , broke off 3 times , to light of gear using wire next time ! Tight lines ! 👍🏼

Awesome, glad you found a gem. Skyway bite is pretty good right now. My next video is at the pier but we went on a one tide day and struggled.

Nice way you took that reel apart. I haven't used one of these yet. My whole life i've always had 1 or 2 boats in front. But my dive partner told me he's going to open up his 17' Whaler for shoreline trolling so i'm back in it since i let my 2 dive boats go bye bye. . I can see using the 50 & 80 for off the 40-60fm ledge. Must be nice being water-side. And Dave is a great guy to work with. Really nice video by the way.

Okuma's new saltwater stuff is badass, i target 100lb gar with the komodo ss, just got the alijos 2 speed for landbased shark fishing. Mak 50w is my next one, i used tiagras, talicas and a calcutta 700b for the longest but the okumas have better gearing and feel just a tad bit more robust. I cant speak on their bass bass reels or spinning gear, for that i fanboy over daiwa and shimano,but their conventional reels are the cream of the crop.
