Versatile and feature-packed softbait combo

The Okuma Epixor XT 40 Tournament Concept Softbait Combo is a durable and versatile combo great for softbaiting and lure fishing. The heavy-duty Okuma Tournament Concept Softbait Rod perfectly matches the smooth and lightweight Okuma Epixor XT 40 Reel. A very well balanced and top-performing combo for the price.

The Reel
The Okuma Epixor XT 40 Spinning Reel is the next generation of a long standing family of spinning reels by Okuma. Designed with C-40X carbon fibre composite construction and featuring Torsion Control Armor (TCA), these advanced technologies provide a reel that is light weight with both exceptional feel and rock solid durability.

Torsion Control Armor (TCA)
The one-piece TCA design was built using Okuma C-40X carbon fibre technology and made with a double arm design. Compared to traditional single side designs, TCA’s double arm offers higher torsion and flex resistance under heavy pressure for improved strength. This not only makes the reel lighter but also extremely rigid ensuring the internal parts stays in perfect alignment.

Cyclonic Flow Rotor (CFR)
Cyclonic Flow Rotor (CFR) was designed to create "cyclonic" airflow, which significantly increases air around the rotor, beneath and around the spool, with every turn of the handle. This thoroughly tested design allows for a much faster drying time if the reel becomes wet, minimising corrosion and extending longevity of the reel.

Centrifugal Disc Bail (CDB)
The Centrifugal Disc Bail (CDB) design incorporates a heavier brass disc that is perfectly weighted and balanced to create smoother bail operations. CDB increases the strength and stability of bail functions.

C-40X
Okuma's C-40X long strand carbon fibre technology utilises a special blended graphite polymer. The carbon fibres in this material are elongated and reinforced, which creates a substantially stronger composite than standard graphite. At 25% lighter, 50% stronger and 100% anti-corrosive, the Epixor XT's carbon fibre frame and side plate are extremely lightweight and durably constructed.

Progressive Drag
Okuma's 1-K woven carbon fibre drag knob is light weight and creates progressive drag settings. Our progressive drag allows you to customise settings to specific conditions and fish or adjust your drag during a long fight.

The Rod
The Okuma Tournament Concept Soft Bait Rod is built using Okuma’s patented Unidirectional Fibre Reinforcement technology. It's designed for Kiwi anglers by the team at Composite Developments, manufactured using a patented process with an outer layer of longitudinal fibres around the rod blank to significantly increase strength and power in the tip section. This offers lifting power and strength up to four times conventional graphite rods.

The Okuma Tournament Concept Soft Bait Rod is widely regarded as the best value on the market, packing an incredible amount of performance and technology into an affordable package. It's very lightweight and sensitive with plenty of power through the lower section of the rod, ideal for both keeping in touch with your lure and fighting fish.
