Hardwater Is Coming: Okuma Ice Collection Has You Covered!
Now is the time to start getting your ice gear organized and ready for another hardwater season. Nights are cooling off and water temperatures are starting to drop. It won't be long before we're all staring at 8-inch holes through the ice and have put our open-water gear away�
To that end, Okuma's diverse ice collection caters to the needs of ice anglers everywhere -everything from rods to reels to must-have ice fishing accessories. Here's a smattering of what Okuma has to offer...
Ice Rods
Looking for rod versatility to match different presentations and species? Then look no farther than the Okuma Trio Pro Ice Rod Kit that features a unique one grip handle and three interchangeable different rod tip power sections. This kit greatly streamlines the amount of gear you need to bring with on your next ice outing and comes complete in a PVC travel bag for ease and protection.When it comes to powerful, sensitive, and well-constructed pro-grade ice rods, Okuma has you covered with the new ICX Ice Rod Series featuring one-piece 24-ton carbon rod blank construction and an orange-colored tip to prevent missing any bites.
Speaking of Okuma ice rods, that's just the start. Okuma Cold Water Deadstick Ice Rods, Inspira Ice Rods, Cold Water Ice Rods, and Cold Water Ice Combos all offer a ton of options for every hardwater scenario.
Ice Reels
Okuma also hosts hardwater-specific reels for anglers across the ice belt. We're especially excited about the Okuma Ceymar Baitfeeder and Avenger ABF spinning reels. Not just for saltwater and catfishing applications, more ice anglers are getting hip to the benefits of line feeder reels. The Ceymar Baitfeeder and Avenger ABF allows anglers to disengage their spinning reel spool and allow their bait to run freely-and incorporates a secondary micro-adjustable drag system at the rear of the reel that allows for precise adjustment of the spool for bait control. Set it and forget it-and catch more fish in the process!
Also consider the Avenger Spinning Reel with special technology to protect the reel against the winter elements and Japanese oiled felt drag system. The Ceymar ODT Limited Edition Spinning and Baitfeeder reels are another series to get hardwater anglers excited. These reels feature 8 ball bearings and up to 22-pounds of drag. Great for mid- to heavy-applications and larger fish.
A Must Have
Lastly, Okuma's ice fishing collection also includes some must-have accessories like Polar X Reel Grease which is formulated to drastically increase the performance of your ice fishing reels in temperatures as low as -50 Fahrenheit. Definitely something to consider keeping your reels running long and true�
