Title: OKUMA Cedros (Salina) spinning reel
Post by: ph1l on April 18, 2013, 04:34:11 PM
Hi all,

I recently notice that Okuma Australia have just release a Salina 3 however, i looked up on Okuma USA website and there is only Cedros (which is called Salina 2 in Australia).

This is how the new Salina 3 looks like in Australia

and of course this is the Salina 2/Cedros

Therefore, have you guys heard of any new Cedros spinning that will be release soon in USA?
I'm thinking to purchase the reel however, I'm just wondering are there any difference between the two reel mechanically or the difference between the two reels are just cosmetic??

To me it looks like Okuma Australia just change the color, spool, arm and knob... the frame looks the same...

Thanks,
Phil

The Aussie Salina III looks more like the American Raw II with a color variation instead of the Cedros.
