Hello,
I'm a bit confused with both models of Okuma reels. I'm not sure if they are the same reel.
I have bought a couple of Okuma Epix Baitfeeder. I found them in Ebay. There are several German shops which you can buy it for a great price.
Here you can buy it for 45 pounds:

It's cheaper there than in UK tackle shops. Why?
I guess it because they are selling the 'Epix Baitfeeder' and in the UK shops sell 'Epix Pro Baitfeeder'. Perhaps Epix
Baitfeeder is discontinued and then you can buy it cheaper in Ebay.

Have anyone bought those reels? in Ebay?


Cheers,

Paco

The pro say's it is the evolution of the EPIX.
Seems these are the differences:
- 100% balanced and perfect line lay
- Static drag system
- Micro adjusable free spool function
- Brass gear and oversized line roller
- 5 year warranty

So pro probably stands for:

Profit-making Re-released Okuma

Oh and its black.

Then Ebay shops are selling discontinued Okuma reels, aren't they?

I think the price is very good. The problem will be that they are selling false reels... How can I be sure about that?

Cheers,

Paco
