Both weigh 205 g and have a 5.2:1 ratio and 5 kg maximum drag. The 1000B holds 140 m of 0.20 mm line and retrieves 65 cm per turn, while the C2000B holds 210 m and retrieves 69 cm. Choose between them by the line reserve and retrieve you need for your light spinning setup.
Both offer a 5.3:1 ratio, 77 cm retrieve and 6 kg maximum drag. At 0.25 mm, the 2500B holds 165 m and the 3000B holds 200 m. The 3000B therefore gives you 35 m more line reserve without changing the stated retrieve or drag rating.
The 4000B and C5000B both provide 9 kg maximum drag and a 5.2:1 ratio. The 4000B weighs 278 g, retrieves 83 cm and holds 185 m at 0.30 mm. The C5000B weighs 280 g, retrieves 88 cm and holds 170 m at 0.35 mm. Compare the rated line diameters and retrieve when selecting a heavier freshwater setup.
Yes, the supplier describes braid as an option for the C2000B, 2500B, 3000B and C5000B. For the 2500B it suggests 0.10–0.15 mm braid with monofilament backing, and for the 3000B 0.12–0.15 mm braid. The capacity figures remain tied to their stated diameters, so they are not separate braid-capacity guarantees.
Flite Drive increases gear stability and smoothness across the family. Together with four ball bearings and one roller bearing, it supports an even retrieve when working lures. Choose the reel size separately according to capacity, retrieve and maximum drag, since Flite Drive is shared by all six versions.
The documented intended use is freshwater, with no stated saltwater-resistant construction. Choose it for that setting rather than assuming coastal suitability. Clean it with a soft cloth, follow the manufacturer's maintenance instructions and store it dry. Remove the line for prolonged storage and check the drag, handle, spool and line roller before use.

The Okuma Avenger B is a spinning reel for freshwater techniques. Its Flite Drive system increases gear stability and smoothness, helping maintain an even retrieve when working lures. Six sizes cover different line capacities and drag requirements, from light perch and trout fishing to pike and zander setups.
The graphite body and rotor keep weight down for active fishing. A slide-in aluminium handle with a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) knob provides a comfortable grip while winding. The HDG+ gearing combines a zinc main gear with a brass pinion, and all sizes have four ball bearings plus one roller bearing. These components work alongside Flite Drive to support smooth reel operation.
The two-tone aluminium spool holds the line, with capacity varying by size. Every version has a thinner, two-piece bail and a chrome line roller. The shared finish is grey, black and gold. Each product contains one reel.
Compare capacity at the stated line diameter, not metres alone. Retrieve figures are per handle turn.
Model | Ratio | Retrieve | Maximum drag | Line capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1000B | 5.2:1 | 65 cm | 5 kg | 140 m at 0.20 mm |
C2000B | 5.2:1 | 69 cm | 5 kg | 210 m at 0.20 mm |
2500B | 5.3:1 | 77 cm | 6 kg | 165 m at 0.25 mm |
3000B | 5.3:1 | 77 cm | 6 kg | 200 m at 0.25 mm |
4000B | 5.2:1 | 83 cm | 9 kg | 185 m at 0.30 mm |
C5000B | 5.2:1 | 88 cm | 9 kg | 170 m at 0.35 mm |
The 1000B and C2000B both weigh 205 g. The 1000B suits light perch and trout fishing with small lures or spinners. The C2000B carries more line at the same diameter and retrieves 4 cm more per turn, with supplier-supported uses including small softbaits for zander. Its suggested spinning-rod casting ranges are 1–15 g or 5–20 g.
The 2500B weighs 235 g and covers light to medium spinning for perch, trout and zander, including jigging and perch dropshot rigs. Supplier setup examples include 5–25 g spinning rods of 2.10–2.70 m, or lighter trout rods up to 15 g. The front drag is rated at 6 kg. For braid, the supplier suggests 0.10–0.15 mm with monofilament backing.
The 3000B shares the 2500B's ratio, retrieve and maximum drag but holds 35 m more line at 0.25 mm. Supplier uses include perch and zander jigging, and pike fishing with medium-sized plugs or softbaits. Suggested rods are in the 10–40 g range, with 0.12–0.15 mm braid given as a line option.
The 4000B weighs 278 g and increases maximum drag to 9 kg, with 83 cm retrieve and capacity for thicker line. Choose it when those specifications better match your rod, line and method, accepting more reel weight than the smaller versions with stated weights. The C5000B weighs 280 g and keeps the same ratio and drag rating but retrieves 88 cm per turn. The supplier describes it for pike and zander spinning or jigging, including larger plugs and softbaits, and gives a 20–80 g spinning rod as a setup example.
The stated intended use is freshwater fishing. Do not treat generic safety advice about cleaning after saltwater exposure as evidence of saltwater resistance. Before fishing, check the drag, handle, spool and line roller, and ensure the reel is firmly attached to a compatible rod. Do not use a damaged reel.
Wipe away dirt with a soft cloth and maintain the reel according to the manufacturer's instructions, using suitable reel oil where required. Store it dry and remove the line for prolonged storage. Keep fingers, hair and clothing clear of moving parts, and supervise children using the reel.
