I was impressed with this reel, regardless of the price. Link to purchase below.

I FOUND A CEYMAR in the Mud w/ a rod attached! I cleaned it up and they Rock! Will be buying more! Only Okuma I Like is the Ceymar!

I have the Ceymar C10 and C20 models it’s smooth as butter and got both for $60. These reels are for on my ultralight setups.

Fantastic reel for the price! Drag is smooth, very few issues. Have a couple of seasons with the Ceymar & ITX reels, & love them both. Highest recommendation!

Okuma are killing the spinning reel competition, and the ceymar is a fantastic reel. I have the new HD 4000 and it's just as good as my daiwa seeled reels.

Me and dad use a bit bigger size reel with a bait feeder for catfish and love it. A very good company tbh

I have an Okuma Citrix 364 bait cast reel that I use for throwing big ( 3-10oz ) swimbaits for bass. Amazing reel. I think I paid $160 for it! Okuma makes some great reels … pretty much under the radar!

I have 9 okuma ITXs and I love them.... they are 100 bucks but fish like a 200 reel

I believe Okuma is more of a North western trout / cut throat thing. They're growing. Addicted Fishing uses all Okuma gear, great channel. I recently a Okuma Ceymar ODT 1000 limited edition and I really like it. I'm glad you showed the 4000 . I'm gonna get another one like yours , but I wanted to see the size. My 1000 almost looks like a 500 😅 but it's great .

My Favorite real. I have 2. No.. you have the lesser one. I use the Caymar C-40 . There is a difference in the handle and the... eh.. no the C - 40 is $50 from Sportsman's warehouse and has a smaller handle that has a cushion grip that is so comfortable. To each his or her own but to me the C - 40 is a clear winner.

Will this reel work for pike fishing? In the 4000-A size? My rod is 30-130G.

Is the bait feeder reel the same in terms of overall reel? They label it as salt water safe on Amazon and not sure. Asked Okuma directly and they said “it can be used”. But any reel can be used lol. I’m trying to set up a survival reel and rod and I like the idea of a normal spinning reel mixed with the bait feeder drag and salt water “safe”. Trying to do a one reel does all if crap hits the fan.
