Okuma Helios SX

[Bluebasser86]

Has anyone had a chance to try one? I've been fishing one for a couple months now and really loving it. Really light without being a tiny reel, and feels very connected, zero slop or play anywhere in the reel. Love the handle too. Just one of those things that fits perfect in my hands. Was a very easy setup and haven't had to touch the settings on it since. I've got the 7.3:1 paired with an Okuma EVX 7' 5" H/F and spooled with 20lb Seaguar Flipping fluoro to put a whopping on some fish.

Cute "little" fish.

I have not been able to use the casting but I do have three of the Helios SX Spinning reels and absolutely love them. Replaced all my spinning reels except my Stradic CI4+ with the SX. The casting model is my next purchase.

Dang...........that's a nice "little" fish!  Who cares about the reel.

I don't know what the topic is but I think the dogs are great.

Cassidee has been going with me almost her whole 6 years. Chloe is only about 6 months and still getting the hang of it, but once she calms herself down and starts relaxing like Cass does the whole time, she'll be good. Cassidee is an expert in boat relaxation though.

I have 3 labs and I keep swearing the next one will be a golden. What great dogs, you are a lucky guy. Oh and nice fish too.
