Okuma Epixor XT Spinning Reel EPXT-40 10kg 76cm 304g 5.0:1

Okuma Epixor XT Spinning Reel EPXT-40 — Reliable Power for Predator Fishing

The Okuma Epixor XT (Extra Tough) EPXT-40 is a purpose-built spinning reel for anglers who chase pike and zander with lures — combining a robust build with smooth, all-day performance.

Built to Handle Hard-Fighting Predators

At the heart of the EPXT-40 is a precisely machine-cut brass gear set paired with 7+1 stainless steel bearings, delivering a fluid 5.0:1 retrieve. The corrosion-resistant graphite body and rotor keep weight in check at 304 g while resisting the damp, demanding conditions of river, lake, and canal fishing. The heavy-duty full-aluminium bail adds structural rigidity where it matters most.

Multi-Disc Drag and Smart Engineering for Confident Control

The multi-disc drag system with oiled felt washers provides smooth, finely adjustable pressure — critical when a large pike makes a sudden run and you need the line to flow without stuttering. The Quick Set Anti-Reverse bearing eliminates handle back-play for instant hook-sets. Additional technologies include TCA (Torsion Control Armor) to reduce line twist, a slow oscillation system for even line lay, CFR (Cyclonic Flow Rotor) for efficient line management, and the RESII (Rotor Equalizing System II) computer-balanced rotor for vibration-free operation. The machine-cut, dual-tone anodised aluminium spool with LCS (Line Control System) lip rounds out a technically well-equipped package.
