I would agree that the BGs and Zseries are fine reels but not exactly suited for what I was looking for.I'm looking for a reel that can throw light stuff like bombers and get good distance.The spool design and weight of the Okuma reels are much more suited to that purpose.

Which Okuma reels were you using?Was one an Axeon? What parts broke all the time and since it happened "all the time" I'm assuming you replaced the parts several times?Why continue to use reels that break all the time?Or are you forming your opinion strictly on what others have told you?
