Hakai Baitcast FROM $379.90

The new breed of high performance compact baitcasting reels is here.

The Hakai is the culmination of Okuma's experience in producing precision-engineered reels with ultimate casting performance being the driving force. A completely new ground-up design incorporates features such as a feather-light magnesium/alloy body that carries the ultralight 167g weight as low as possible for balance and control.

Okuma has incorporated FLITE SPOOL™ and FLITE SHAFT™ technology into the Hakai. This allows for a super-tuned spool with unrivalled performance. The 33mm O/D all-purpose spool weighs only 9.5g total including the bearings.

The Hakai also features a patented hollow stainless-steel SUS FLITE SHAFT™ with precision SUS balls and provides a perfect balance between weight, strength, and smoothness. The result is a casting reel that allows anglers of any skill level to confidently cast even the lightest lure.
