Okuma has developed FLITE-SPOOL and FLITE-SHAFT technology into the Hakai. This allows for a super-tuned spool with unrivaled performance. The 33mm O/D all-purpose spool weighs only 9.5g (0.33oz) total with the bearing. The Hakai also features a patented hollow stainless-steel SUS FLITE SHAFT with precision SUS balls and provides a perfect balance between weight, strength, and smoothness. Hakai low-profile reels allow anglers of any skill level to confidently cast even the lightest of lures up to 3g (0.10 oz)

And it catches fish, as its cult of fans know

For most swimbait slow rolling and slow retrieving, I recommend casting rods with some extra length and softer tips as most strikes will happen far out and down deep

We get a lot of requests asking what smallmouth bass lures we use

We feel that the reel could benefit from a slightly larger handle
