Bail me out

December 8, 2019

After casting you need to manually close the bail. Iâ€;™;ve never had a reel that didnâ€;™;t close itself by turning the handle. Almost wondering if something is missing. Other than the bail issue everything is good

ProsStrong drag. Very smooth reel

ConsThe non selfclosing bail is a bummer

Absolutely Love It!!!

January 19, 2018

I purchased the 65 for party boat fishing in Southern California and the real has not let me down!!! I have caught Dorado, Yellowtail, Rockfish, Sand Bass, Calico Bass on this reel. It's stopping power is amazing and for the price it hard to find a better reel. I will be adding 2 more of these to the rotation.

Azores 80

November 4, 2017

I have used this reel for jigging and popping, for around 2 years now and absolutely nothing wrong with it. Great amount of drag, torque and rigidity for winching in those big fish. Best priced reel I have ever used!

ProsTorque, rigid, lots of stopping power (drag).

Okuma Azores, my new favorite reel!

July 14, 2015

If you fish saltwater this is a must have.I have the 65 on a 7ft XH Tsunami trophy jigging rod. It's a perfectly balanced smooth combo and ican't wait to wear out some tarpon or monster snook with it!

March 2, 2019

What are the significant differences between the Z-40 Azores and the Z-4000 Azores besides the color? The added line capacity is the only difference "on paper". Heavier duty parts? Internal support system? Size of size the bearings or drag disks?

1 Answer

Besides the color the only difference is the line capacity with the 4000 having a larger line capacity.

October 2, 2017

I am looking for a multi-purpose saltwater spinning reel. I will use it for live bait tarpon fishing and jigging for amberjack. I like this reel because it does high drag. Which size should I get, the 65 or the 80?

1 Answer

I think the 65 size would be sufficient so long as you are using a braided line. You'd be able to fix approximately 300 yard of 80 lb. braid on the reel.
