What Makes the Okuma Carbonite CBF 155A Stand Out?
🎣 Ready to Fish
It comes pre-spooled with line, which is a real time saver. For beginners, it means you don’t have to worry about loading line evenly, and for experienced anglers it’s a convenient grab-and-go solution.
⚡ Smooth Operation
With 3+1 quality bearings, the retrieve is smooth and consistent – essential when bringing in feeders, fish, or long casts from far-bank features.
🏋 Reliable Drag
The multi-disc front drag gives steady, controlled pressure, helping to land fish without hook pulls. Great for feeder fishing where sudden lunges from carp or tench are common.
🛠 Built to Last
The graphite body is light yet strong, resisting corrosion and wear. It’s a reel you can confidently take to muddy banks and still expect to work perfectly.
🎯 All-Round Capability
Whether you’re fishing the feeder on a commercial, trotting a waggler for silvers, or targeting bream and tench on a natural lake, the Carbonite handles it all.
Usage Examples
-
Commercial Carp Bagging – Attach a method feeder, cast to the island, and let the smooth retrieve handle the heavy loads with ease.
-
Canal Roach Fishing – Light float fishing for shy-biting species is a breeze thanks to its compact, lightweight design.
-
River Chub & Barbel – Handles moderate flow feeder work with ease, thanks to the strong drag system and smooth retrieve.
-
Match Fishing – Perfect for a range of approaches, making it an ideal all-rounder for the match angler who wants value without compromise.
