    okuma vs200 baitcaster

    Has anyone had any experiences with this reel? It looks good on paper and the 2 different spools is a handy feature. 1 shallow ported spool for bass and flathead, and 1 standard deep spool for sttretching your arms on the impoundment barra . Not sure if the drags on the okuma's are up to the task with the tropical species but theres always the upgrade option if needed.

    Any thoughts or opinions appreciated.

    cheers, Roo.

    cheers guys. I'd prefer the curado too, although It would get most use on bass and flathead. the option to have a crack at the barra is too tempting....only a 6hr drive Nth

    It's for The Missus I like the 2 spools idea of the okuma vs200 but I'm not so sure now ..........but I'd like the curado 300DSV .
    cheers, roo.
