Title: Catalina vs. Tekota
Post by: 4 REEL on February 06, 2011, 04:58:52 PM
I would like some input on Okumas Catalina CT-205Da vs. Shimano Tekota TEK300LC.
Performance and sevicablity?

The catelina is a little larger and comes with carbon drags.  They are both great reels esp. since Okuma steped up their game...and unfortunately, their price.

you have to check the drags on both.  and as far as servicing goes, they are about the same.  the nice thing about the catalina is that it has more stainless steel.  i prefer the reel on that basis alone.  alan
