Okuma Makaira MK-15II SE — Two-Speed Power for Big-Game Sea Fishing

The Okuma Makaira MK-15II SE is a Special Edition two-speed multiplier reel built for serious offshore anglers who need reliable stopping power when trophy fish take the line.

Two-Speed Gear System for the Long Fight

When a large pelagic fish is hooked and every retrieve costs energy, the Makaira's two-speed gear system earns its keep. Switching from the standard 4.7:1 ratio to the low 2.1:3 ratio gives you significantly more torque on demand — letting you work harder against powerful runs without burning out your arms on a long drill.

Precision Engineering Built to Last at Sea

The frame is CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminium with forged side plates, ensuring tight tolerances between the spool and cross bars. Helical-cut gears in 17-4 stainless steel deliver smooth, quiet operation and increased torque. The Carbonite Dual Force drag system, lubricated with Cal's universal drag grease, is supported by a dedicated thrust bearing that reduces lateral forces under heavy drag settings — keeping pressure consistent when it matters most. Four Sapporo stainless steel ABEC 5 precision ball bearings, open spool bearings with TSI-301 oil, and fully greased remaining bearings round out a reel designed for maximum longevity in saltwater conditions.
