Okuma Azores Blue 6500 Stickbait Combo with Tube 7ft 9in 45-150g 3pc

A new level of strength and stability

The Okuma Azores Blue 6500 Stickbait Combo is packed with features to provide power, efficiency, rod sensitivity and overall smoothness.

The Reel
The new Okuma Azores Blue 6500 Saltwater Spinning Reel is packed with more features and now comes in a striking blue finish. Rigid die-cast aluminium body, side plate and rotor, precision machine-cut pinion gear, machined aluminium handle arm and spool and coated with CRC. But within the interior is where Azores gains massive separation from competitors. Dual anti-reverse systems, massive oversized spool shaft and grease-packed stainless steel bearings deliver incredible strength while Carbon Mechanical Stabilisation System stops electrolysis in its tracks. Perfect for boat fishing, jigging or live baiting!

Dual Force Drag System
DFD incorporates both surfaces of the spool to maximise high-end drag pressure, efficiency and overall smoothness. Mounted in the top of the spool and protected by the Hydro Block system is a multi-disc felt drag system that works in conjunction with a secondary drag system that is mounted under the spool. Even pressure is applied to both surfaces of the spool for maximum stability and significantly increased drag output compared to traditional single drag systems.

High Performance Bearing (HPB)
6 high performance ball bearings provide Azores with outstanding smoothness and reliability in saltwater fishing environments. The balls used on the HPB's are constructed from the same high-grade stainless steel material as the bearing housing.

Dual Anti-Reverse System
The Azores features Okuma's trusted Quick Set anti-reverse system and a backup multi-stop anti reverse system for increased durability and reliability in all fishing conditions.

AlumiLite Construction (ALC)
Rigid die cast aluminum body, side plate and rotor: AlumiLite Construction incorporates Okuma's rigid aluminum body technology, alum frames are stronger and more rigid and are capable of withstanding more pressure and torque than traditional graphite frames. These lightweight, die cast alum frames provides more precise tolerances for precision gear aligment, maximum stability and ultimate durability.

The Rod
Utilising a new Okuma process (including the carbon twill reinforced butt) and high performance carbon from Japan and Korea the Okuma Azores Spin Stickbait Rod will blow you away with its strength, casting ability and overall sensitivity to feel everything. Finished to the highest spec and utilising the best hardware such as ALPS guides, customised reel seat and rubberised gimbal makes this rod an absolute delight to use.
