Okuma Epixor LS Spinning EPL-40 — Smooth, Long-Lasting Performance for Predator Fishing

The Okuma Epixor LS (Low Speed) EPL-40 is a purpose-built spinning reel for lure anglers targeting pike and zander in rivers, lakes, canals, and ponds. Robust construction meets refined mechanics for hours of comfortable, active predator fishing.

Multi-Disc Drag for Confident Control in the Fight

The oiled felt disc drag system delivers fine, linear adjustment across its full 9 kg range. Whether a pike makes a powerful run or a zander surges at the net, the drag releases line smoothly and consistently — protecting light leaders and keeping hooks pinned.

Precision Mechanics Built to Last

Five plus one stainless steel ball bearings, a machine-cut brass gear, and the computer-balanced RESII (Rotor Equalizing System) combine to produce an exceptionally smooth retrieve. The Cyclonic Flow Rotor (CFR) technology improves line lay, the Slow Oscillation System spreads line evenly across the machined, dual-tone anodised aluminium spool with LCS lip, and the corrosion-resistant graphite body and rotor keep weight down without sacrificing rigidity. A solid aluminium bail and stiff metal handle arm round out a reel built for demanding sessions.
