Have now used mine a few more times and they’re very good reels. Perfect for a light set up.

Did you get the reels and what's your opinion on them?

Bobcotackle on eBay are selling these for £140 for a set of three, postage included. Just ordered myself a set.

I have both Okuma Inc and Shimano 5500 .... i think the Okuma is a far nicer reel

Bought a set of 3 to go on my 10ft rods while my old 5500 have a holiday..similar in size body wise, spools a tad narrower and longer. Loaded with. 35 mono I found negligible difference in casting distance using a 3 oz lead. Clutch is a fraction quicker.. And smoother. For the price of these against Shimanos of a similar size its a no brainer imo 👍👍 Okumas are vastly underrated IMO, for the simple reason theyre not trendy or blingy.

Has anybody tried to source spare spools for these reels please?
I just checked one out in the local tackle shop and was impressed. More so once a pal who works there said he had had some for 3 years and really liked them.

What’s the oscillation like on these? I fancy a set myself but have had issues before using fluro with Techniums etc.

Yeah, the ls-6k is the one. The 8k one is massive.

I’ve got mine on light 12 footers (2.5lb e-class) and they go perfectly. Bought them as a stop gap until I had enough brass for ci4 5500s… don’t think I’m going to bother getting them, the Inceptions are that good 👍🏻
