The Okuma Avenger "ABF" baitfeeder spinning reel reflects a refinement and precision that is the culmination of a decade
of research and development. It is a unique combination of tournament grade spinning reel and Okuma's patented live line
bait feeding system. The Avenger "ABF" series puts a new spin on the traditional world of reels, and more importantly,
what can be expected from them. Quite simply, these are ultra smooth, precision crafted reels. The light weight CNC
machined spools are fitted with super smooth oil-soaked felt washers. The reel features six sealed ball bearings, for
smooth operation. The Avenger ABF uses Okuma's live bait feeding system. The easy-to-reach lever (located on the body
behind the handle) disengages the spool to allow the line to run freely. The tension of the free spool can be adjusted
with the rear adjustment (which looks and works like a rear drag). The bait feeding system allows a fish to pick up the
bait and run without feeling the drag of the reel. When you are ready to set the hook, you flip down the baitfeeder
lever to engage the drag, and the conventional front drag takes over.

The Avenger ABF Series of Baitcasting Reels are known for providing a combination of quality construction,
great performance, and affordable value. Okuma's patented baitfeeding system allows for disengagement of the spool and
free-running line without opening the bail. Predators are allowed to pick up a bait and run with little resistance as
they commit to eating--in order to provide a solid hookset. With a turn of the handle, the spool and drag system engage
to set the hook and fight the fish. Coming in sizes 20 through 90 to accommodate most applications, from walleye to
catfish--and--stripers to rockfish, this series has most baitcast anglers covered.

Avenger's On/Off Auto Trip Baitfeeding System:
Okuma's Avenger baitfeeding system allows anglers to disengage their spinning reel spool and allow their bait to run
freely. The baitfeeding system incorporates a secondary, micro-adjustable drag system at the rear of the reel that
allows for precise adjustment of the spool for bait control. In order to disengage this system, simply turn the handle.
The On/Off lever on the rear of the reel will automatically disengage the baitfeeding system so you can fight your fish
with the main drag system.
