I've recently bought the Okuma inc 6000, it's a brilliant little reel! Goes perfectly on my explorers, they cast well, they wind in the fish well and the clutch is remarkably good considering I paid just £90 for two of them! I massive thumbs up from me, there is nothing close to it in that price bracket, or even the bracket above id be bold enough to assume.
Parkfield Anfling have stock of them always do the best deals

Agreed...Yesterday I had hold of the smaller match fishing reels Okuma produce side by side with the Daiwa equivalent

I'd say on feel the Daiwa was possibly just a touch better...but only by a whisker.

Prices...

Daiwa £130

Okuma £30

Watch out Daiwa and Shimano...Okuma is here.

As stated the inc 6000 is a belting reel and should I ever come over all Alan Blair again they would be my go too choice

I looked at the inc6000 in shop, loosened the spool and it all felt cheap, don't think Shimano / Daiwa should fear.

I got four for £170 before the shortage of tackle in the shops.

Post 19 okuma have been here for years, i still have 2 sets of interceptors that are well over 25 years old and never missed a beat.

About 6 months ago, you could pick them up for about £40 each, but when they started selling out, the price went up to £50, then when hardly anyone had any stock, the shops that had them were selling at £60. At Parkfield, think you can get 3 for £150. I ordered 3 of these in December, but then they rang me up and said they only had 2 in stock. And then the fun began to get a third!! But even at £60, they are a bargain imho.

I use Parkfields a hell of a lot, and have a good relationship with the boys, they look after me well!

Seems, like you're already sorted but here is another vote for the Okuma 6000 INC, I have 2 on my Xtractor 10fters

They did have stock but no longer have any, can the washers be changed like on a Shimano etc does anybody know?
