Title: Drag washers for Okuma Catalina 55N
Post by: J.AkuHed on February 25, 2010, 03:46:56 PM
Howzit Alan!  I'm looking for drag washers for the Okuma Catalina 55N.  One of the guys on Senor Tuna suggested I contact you about fabricating some.  Can you do that i I give you the specs?  What would it cost me?
Mahalos!

At the urging of my ST friends, I emailed Dawn at Smotth Drag with te dimensions of the Okuma drag washers.  Sure enough and true to form, she found a match!  The Okuma's drags were very close to those of the Shimano Ocea Jigger!
Thanks Dawn!

Okuma sells carbon fiber drag washers for this and most of their other reels if you can't  find them aftermarket. Go to okumafishing.com customer service page for a link to all Okuma reel schemetics with the new part #s.
