Okuma Avenger Bait-Feeder?
I’m taking a liking to this Okuma Avenger bait-feeder reel. Has a nice line capacity (not a huge shark sized one but the perfect size for the carp/cats i catch), good reviews, and cost $49! That’s 1/3 of a Shimano Bait-Runner. Sure it’s not going to be as smooth or dependable as the Shimano but I think it will get the job done.
I also prefer spinning reels over any other type for carp fishing. Also with it having a bait-feeder option, it was made for carp/cats!
Probably will pair it up with an Ugly Stick, 7′ medium action if I can find one.
the reel also has a 4.7 rating on Cabela’s website! You can’t get much better!
so does anyone else have this reel?
I purchased an Okuma Epixor once, (not the Bait-feeder version). This one- http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0042935121787a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH_all&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&Ntk=Products&QueryText=okuma&sort=all&Go.y=7&_D%3AhasJS=+&N=0&Nty=1&hasJS=true&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fsearch%2Fsearch-box.jsp.form23&Go.x=23&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1
It was a solid reel- smooth- good distance casting-the whole 9 yards.
The problem?
After about 3 months of heavy fishing the bail spring got worn and it would not close automatically-OR WORSE, the bail would trip just before your cast launching & losing your lure.
After losing lures because of premature bail trip I vowed to NEVER purchase another spinning reel that didn’t have a “sure-click” on the bail wire.
Pflueger & Shimano are the only company’s providing a sure-click system, (although Daiwa has something similar).
I don’t know what the bait-feeder reel will be like……
When you go to purchase it stick it on a rod and do some false casting in the store. If the bail wire trips on a power cast save your money for a Shimano. …….

Putting bail back on an okuma avenger?
Well, I took the bail off after getting some sand in it after a storm for a little bit of cleaning, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to put it back on. Someone else had the same problem with an epixor but the solution wasn’t very clear. Here are the pictures of what the insides look like:

I know that these aren’t the avengers, but they are built in the exact same way. This is probably quite easy, but I’ve tried just about everything and I don’t want to accidentally break the reel.
here’s the proper links:
Here is a link to a site with schematics for the Okuma Avenger reels. I would start by making sure that you did not accidentally lose any parts. If this still does not help solve the problem I would suggest that you find a local bait store that does reel repair. They should be able to help you get it back together.

Hope this helps and Good Luck
