Okuma Helios HSX-273VLX 7,3:1 Linkshand Baitcaster
incl. VAT, excl.
The Okuma Helios HSX-273VLX is a precision-engineered baitcasting reel designed for left-hand retrieve anglers targeting predatory fish from boat or bank. At just 179 g and a fast 7.3:1 gear ratio with 80 cm line recovery per turn, it keeps you in control when working lures fast or following fish through structure.
The Helios HSX-273VLX is built around an ALC (Aluminum die-cast frame and side plates) chassis paired with a CRC (Corrosion-Resistant Coating) process, keeping the reel light and durable in tough, wet conditions. The machined aluminum spool and aluminum gearing contribute to a smooth, tournament-feel retrieve while helping keep overall weight down to 179 g — a real advantage on long sessions.
The Carbonite Multi-Disc brake system delivers consistent, powerful drag up to 6.4 kg with a calm, rattle-free running feel. A 12-point speed control system lets you dial in cast distance and accuracy precisely. The frictionless shaft system helps maximize casting distance, while the 10+1 stainless steel bearings — including precision Japanese ABEC-5 spool bearings and a Quick-Set anti-reverse roller bearing — ensure every retrieve is smooth and immediate.
This reel is currently available as a single variant. The configuration below is well matched to anglers who prefer left-hand retrieve for perch, pike, and zander fishing from bank or boat:
