Okuma Alijos 2-Speed 12 800g 6.4:1/2.1:1 Right

Okuma Alijos 2-Speed 12 — Built to Stop Big Fish

The Okuma Alijos 2-Speed 12 combines lightweight, compact construction with serious stopping power for targeting large, aggressive saltwater species. Its dual-speed shifting mechanism and custom thrust bearing deliver precision control when it matters most.

Dual-Speed Power for Deep Water

Switch instantly between high-speed (6.4:1) retrieval and low-speed (2.1:1) cranking power with the completely reworked 2-speed shifting system. The 90 mm handle arm and oversized T-bar knob maximize leverage when you need to haul fish up from the depths, while the 123 cm retrieve per turn keeps you efficient in high gear.

Built for Saltwater Durability

The rigid one-piece frame and sideplates are machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and protected by Okuma's Corrosion-Resistant Coating process. Six NMB corrosion-resistant stainless steel bearings (plus one roller bearing) feature TSI-301 oil on the spool bearings for unmatched freespool performance. The 17-4 grade stainless steel main and pinion gears stand up to heavy saltwater use.
