Questions about Okuma Citrix Lightweight Baitcast Reel

What lb max drag?

Does okuma offer any warranty I bought one and after three months the thumb button sticks and won’t release to cast

Answer: I have no idea I have never broken one before usually they're pretty tough

Line cap in dia.?

Does it have a clicker

Can this reel be used for saltwater fishing?

Answer: That is not the type of fishing this reel is made for, but everything is interchangeable. You would have to clean it very well if used in a salt water environment. And, this is a medium light weight reel so, depending on what your target species is, would be your deciding answer.

Answer: Probably a little light for saltwater. I'm using mine for steelhead on the Oregon Coast.

Answer: I wouldn't really recommend this for saltwater. It's intended for freshwater, has a pretty low drag weight. If you are fishing for small fish you certainly could use it but I'd worry about corrosion. Okuma made a good saltwater baitcaster called the Serrano. I have one of them that I use for Bass fishing. I'd look for that instead. Since its out of production you should be able to find them cheap on amazon.

How many ball bearings does the 7.3:1 have

Answer: 9BB+1RB Bearing drive system.

Would this reel be good for trolling for salmon in the mouth of the Columbia River?

Answer: Very capable but not superhuman. Not really large enough, nor really designed for trolling.

Answer: No its too small & the drag would be too light.

Is this the 300 or 200 series?

What color is this reel ?

Answer: The Reel is black with red trim

Answer: Black / orange

David from Missouri : nice reel

Nice reel . Pretty smooth. replacement for an older ardent reel. Casts well . Use it for flipping with braid line.

R. O'Brien : I don't love the citrix as much as the helios or komodo ...

I don't love the citrix as much as the helios or komodo reels that I have from Okuma, but for the money they are fantastic. I have a few of these and took the older ones apart recently to really clean and lube them up and they are better than new now! The pinion gear was bent from some accidental jarring on the 3 year old one and so I just moved it to the perpendicular slots and all is well again. I prefer the new paint jobs to the old ones too.
