Hi Kadi, the Okuma ITX and the Shimano Sustain are very similar in use, Drag, retrieve rate, reel weight etc virtually the same. Main difference is that my Sustain is about 5yrs old and still performs well but I am on to my second ITX in 2 yrs. The ITX is a fraction of the price tho.
@@kadigeerkens7625 its acceptable for the price. I really fished mine hard and did buy another one as I was impressed but ye its not going to last like a high end Shimano. Having said that it seems Shimano is not carrying spares for their reels in SA which is pretty poor
Nice guys, species spread was amazing. Thanks for sharing. Cheers 🍻🍺
Awesome thanks Andrew
Hi, is that a tug 10 you are fishing off? Thanks, great video's.
Thanks Hendrik, I think it is called a Grunter Hunter, manufactured in PE if I recall.
Legend
Thanks Ebrahim
Howzit man what lures were you using
Howzit Ross, most of them should be in the video. Bucktail, Rapala twitchin mullet, dropshots were the main lures used.
Awesome video!! How does the okuma itx compare with the higher end shimanos?
