Quick take
An Okuma spinning reel with graphite body, precision-cut brass pinion gear, and multi-disc drag system for smooth, durable freshwater fishing.
The Okuma Avenger AV-1000a is a light 1000-size spinning reel with a graphite body and rotor, built around six ball bearings plus a roller bearing. A multi-disc oiled felt drag and a brass pinion gear handle line release and retrieve, and the Quick-Set anti-reverse keeps the handle from backing up. It suits anglers rigging light freshwater spinning setups for panfish, trout and small bass.
