I picked up an Okuma Stratus reel today at Dick's sporting goods. I think these are made just for Dick's. They are on sale now for $34.98 from a normal price of $69.99. They are a nice reel that look like they are just a step below the Epixor for features. For those of you that like Okuma reels, you may want to check these out. They are on sale around my neck of the woods until April 25th.
