The 90 is a beast! I have 3 and use them for everything from deep jigging to surf fishing for big sharks. Great investment. Good choice.

What size reel do you use? How long have you been using your okuma avenger reels? I've seen some really good reviews online with positive customer service feedback.

I've had some old penn reels that I've used for years and am looking for something to replace them as they wear out (cant find parts). I picked up a shimano stradic 4000 that i have used for inshore last fall. I love the reel but still not sure how its going to hold up vs the cost. I was thinking about trying one of the Okuma's for kings and cobia. I like the live lining option and the cost is hard to beat.
