I pick Daiwa black widow 25A and Daiwa emcast 25A over any Okuma reel.

Yeah, go for the Okuma's, good reels for £50 apiece.

I've only tried the Inc 6000's, but I guess the cb60 will be good as well. Something I've noticed this week because I was trying to buy one, spare spools for Inc 6000's are non existant. So if this is important to you, perhaps see if cb60 spare spools are available anywhere.

If you've got 20lb, I'd use it, won't affect your fishing. Will limit your casting but as the waters you fish are small, should be OK.

I've just sold my Shimano ST10000RBs and taken delivery of the Okuma inc 6000's today which I'll use for my 10ft set up. Considerable difference in weight with Okuma's feeling much heavier. Even just spinning the handle around on both, the Shimano's felt a better reel than the Okuma's. I just don't like baitrunners when used to front drag reels. Would I change back or regret swapping....?! No, not at least until I've had a chance to use their performance whilst fishing. Time will tell if they are any good compared to the similarly priced Shimanos.

Not sure why you would think the Okuma Inc's are heavier
Shimano - Baitrunner ST 10000 RB weighs 555grams
Okuma Inc 6000 weighs 460grams
My 8000 size Baitrunners are defo heavier than the Olumas

Felt heavier in my hand when I pulled one out the box. Clearly the specs say otherwise

Hi oatcakefred
I've just been offered a Nash pocket pod
I know for sure that the okuma inception will fit
But would the okuma 8k customs fit
The seller is gonna double check the measurements later
But I'm so tempted with the 8k custom look so nice if they fit I'd consider going for them
Whatcha reckon mate ?
