Built with a rigid ALC aluminum frame and C-40X carbon-injected sideplates, the Helios XT provides an excellent balance of strength, durability, and comfort for long days on the water.

At the heart of the Okuma Helios XT Casting Reel is a precision-engineered drivetrain featuring a CNC-cut anodized aluminum drive gear and machine-cut brass pinion gear. This durable combination delivers smooth operation and dependable cranking power when retrieving lures or battling hard-fighting bass.

Its Carbonite drag system delivers up to 18 pounds of maximum drag pressure, giving anglers the control needed to fight aggressive fish around docks, vegetation, and submerged structure.

A standout feature of the Helios XT is its JDM-style audible drag clicker, which provides audible feedback when a fish pulls drag. This feature adds another level of awareness during the fight, helping anglers monitor drag engagement as fish make powerful runs.

The internally adjustable centrifugal cast control system allows anglers to fine-tune casting performance for different lure weights and fishing conditions. Whether you're casting crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jigs, or soft plastics, the Helios XT offers the control needed for accurate, consistent presentations.

Finished with a 90mm swept aluminum handle, the Okuma Helios XT delivers comfortable handling and reliable cranking performance throughout extended fishing sessions.
