    Interesting, I have one of their cheap "hundy dollar" snapper combo's which gets absolutely thrashed and not loved afterwards. Still working after 5 years and caught more than a few big snapper

    I paid $300 for an okuma overhead combo hooked a good sized snapper with it and the reel shit itself at the most crucial time and as chris said the warranty was only good for wiping your arse with so okuma lost a potential follower with me. penn, shimano, Fin-nor and daiwa is where it is at for reels and rods IMHO.
